Our understanding of the epidemiology, genetics, pathophysiology, and clinical manifestations of primary ciliary dyskinesia has rapidly advanced since the disease was linked to ultrastructural defects of the ciliary axoneme more than four decades ago. [thoracic.org]

Alongside medical use, this could prove a boon for epidemiological and virological researchers. For example, everything from sexually transmitted infections to the common cold could be cataloged by strain, date, and location. [theodysseyonline.com]

As clinical data collection is fundamental not only for clinical care but also for registry development and studies such as cohort, interventions, genetic and epidemiological, these lessons are applicable across many other settings. [f1000research.com]
