How to Prounce My Name
My First name is Bradley (BrAd-ley as opposed to Brad-LEE), though I tend to just go by Brad. My last name is Levergood, pronounced simply as a combination of the two words it is comprised of, Lever-good.

This article provides an argument for the financial and public health benefits of creating more personilzed medicines based on an individual's genotype, as opposed to the current pharmaceutical model of mass marketing one variation of a drug to many different people, which increases the risk that some people will recieve it for whom that variation may not work as well or, worse may cause harm.
