英国新生儿将迎“基因身份证”:预防疾病,从“生命起点”开始!

英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)正酝酿一项雄心勃勃的十年计划:对英格兰所有新生儿进行DNA检测,以评估其患数百种疾病的风险。这项由《每日电讯报》率先披露的计划,是英国政府推行疾病预测与预防策略的一部分,预计到2030年还将投入6.5亿英镑用于全民DNA研究。

通过对新生儿脐带血样本进行全基因组测序,NHS旨在实现“跳过疾病”的愿景,即在疾病出现症状之前就进行干预。卫生大臣韦斯·斯特里廷表示,基因技术将使患者获得个性化医疗,从而预防疾病、减轻NHS压力并延长寿命。此举有望从根本上改变英国医疗服务模式,从“诊断治疗”转向“预测预防”。

这项宏大的计划虽然前景光明,但基因学家也提醒,除了数据收集,更重要的是培养足够的专业人才来解读这些基因信息,并与患者及其家人进行充分沟通。毕竟,仅仅掌握信息是不够的,如何以恰当、有益的方式传递这些信息,才是关键所在。

How to Invest in Bitcoin?

Like a stock, you can buy and hold Bitcoin as an investment. You can even now do so in special retirement accounts called Bitcoin IRAs. No matter where you choose to hold your Bitcoin, people’s philosophies on how to invest it vary: Some buy and hold long term, some buy and aim to sell after a price rally, and others bet on its price decreasing. Bitcoin’s price over time has experienced big price swings, going as low as $5,165 and as high as $28,990 in 2020 alone. “I think in some places, people might be using Bitcoin to pay for things, but the truth is that it’s an asset that looks like it’s going to be increasing in value relatively quickly for some time,” Marquez says. “So why would you sell something that’s going to be worth so much more next year than it is today? The majority of people that hold it are long-term investors.”

How to Buy Bitcoin?

Most people buy Bitcoin via exchanges, such as Coinbase. Exchanges allow you to buy, sell and hold cryptocurrency, and setting up an account is similar to opening a brokerage account—you’ll need to verify your identity and provide some kind of funding source, such as a bank account or debit card. Major exchanges include Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini. You can also buy Bitcoin at a broker like Robinhood. Regardless of where you buy your Bitcoin, you’ll need a digital wallet in which to store it. This might be what’s called a hot wallet or a cold wallet. A hot wallet (also called an online wallet) is stored by an exchange or a provider in the cloud. Providers of online wallets include Exodus, Electrum and Mycelium. A cold wallet (or mobile wallet) is an offline device used to store Bitcoin and is not connected to the Internet. Some mobile wallet options include Trezor and Ledger.
