Personalized Medicine

Advances in genomics and molecular diagnostics have paved the way for personalized medicine , tailoring treatments to individual patients based on their genetic makeup , environment , and lifestyle .

How does Personalized Medicine work ?

BioTech

P ersonalized medicine focuses on

preventive measures based on an individual ' s genetic and environmental risk factors . It utilizes advanced technologies like Next- Generation Sequencing to analyze an individual ' s genetic makeup , gene expression patterns , and other molecular markers . This profiling provides insights into disease susceptibility , prognosis , and treatment response . It also incorporates genetic testing to identify genetic variations associated with disease risk . This information helps assess an individual ' s predisposition to certain conditions and enables proactive measures for prevention and early detection .
APPLICATIONS OF PERSONALIZED MEDICINE
• Genomic and Molecular Profiling
• Genetic Testing and Risk Assess ment
• Tailored Treatment Selection
• Drug Response Prediction
• Clinical Decision Support
• Monitoring and Disease Management
• Preventive Interventions
