Implementation of Personalized Precision Medicine

Author(s) : William P. Stanford, Laura Kelly

Book Description:

Implementation of Personalized Precision Medicine: Expanding the Clinical Vision towards Prevention, Early Detection, and Precision Treatment of Disease to Drive Extended Healthspan establishes the landscape of precision medicine as it stands in relation to implementation of individualized approaches based on the patient’s unique genomic and biochemical make-up to facilitate prevention, early detection and personalized interventions. This reference details how these lofty goals are now achievable with the science of today (and tomorrow) and provides the context and blueprint allowing researchers and clinicians to avoid, and more effectively treat, complex chronic disease.At the heart of precision medicine lies one concept that has been missing from modern medicine–the unique genetic and biochemical make-up of each individual patient. Uniquely organized, this reference reflects this concept and provides insights into patient constitution, genetic inherited risk, current epigenetic modifications, and current biochemical state, making this reference valuable to researchers and science-minded providers who modified, reverse or prevent disease progression.
