Personalized medicine

Personalized medicine or precision medicine or thernostatics is the booming concept in the field of medicine. It depends on the molecular basis of the disease, particularly genomics. Techniques like gene sequencing can reveal the mutations in the genome that influences various diseases from fibrosis to cancer, thus sequencing helps to understand the state of health of an individual in broad way, so that precautions can be taken to prevent some diseases. For example, if it is found that a DNA mutation increases a person's risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes, this individual can begin lifestyle changes that will lessen their chances of developing Type 2 Diabetes later in life.
Cancer Genomics, is the application of genomics and personalized medicine to cancer research and treatment. Sequencing methods are used to characterize genes associated with cancer to better understand disease pathology and improve drug improvement. Oncogenomics is one of the most promising branches of genomics, particularly because of its implications in drug therapy. Personalized medicine may provide better diagnoses with earlier intervention, and more efficient drug development and therapies.
Journal of Clinical Genomics is aimed to publish such useful and most emerging topics and is inviting researchers to associate and publish articles in the journal.
