Abstract

The journey from laboratory research to clinical practice is marked by significant advancements in the fields of single-cell technologies and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) research. This convergence may reshape our approach to personalized medicine, offering groundbreaking insights and treatments in various clinical settings. This chapter discusses advancements in (nc)RNAs in the clinics, innovations in single-cell technologies and algorithms, and the impact on actual precision medicine, showing the integration of single-cell and ncRNA research can have a tangible impact on precision medicine. Case studies in Oncology, Immunology, and other fields demonstrate how these technologies can guide treatment decisions, tailor therapies to individual patients, and improve outcomes. This approach is particularly potent in addressing diseases with high inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. The final sections address standardization, data integration, and analysis challenges because the complexity and volume of data generated by single-cell and ncRNA research poses significant challenges. Medical Informatics is not just a support tool but could be seen as a pivotal component in advancing clinical applications of single-cell and ncRNA research by bridging the gap between bench and bedside. The future of personalized medicine depends on our ability to harness the power of these technologies, and Medical Informatics in combination with ncRNA and single-cell technologies may stand at the forefront of this endeavor.
