A personalized approach to healthcare that tailors medical treatment and interventions to the individual characteristics of each patient, including their genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environment.
The study of an individual’s entire set of genes (genome) and how they interact to influence health and disease.
The analysis of an individual’s DNA to identify genetic variations that may be associated with disease risk, treatment response, or other health-related factors.
A measurable indicator, often a molecule or genetic alteration, that can be used to assess a biological process, disease presence, or treatment response.
The study of how an individual’s genetic makeup influences their response to medications, helping to tailor drug selection and dosage for optimal efficacy and minimal side effects.
The process of determining the order of nucleotides in an individual’s DNA, providing detailed information about genetic variations.
A numerical representation of an individual’s genetic risk for a particular condition, calculated based on multiple genetic markers.
A form of treatment that specifically targets and interferes with the activity of genes, proteins, or other molecules involved in the growth and survival of cancer cells.
A non-invasive test that detects genetic alterations in circulating tumor DNA, often used in cancer diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning.
A common genetic variation at a single nucleotide position in a DNA sequence, used as a marker for disease susceptibility or treatment response.
The study of changes in gene expression that do not involve alterations to the underlying DNA sequence, often influenced by environmental factors.
