Clinical Decision Support for Pharmacogenomic Precision Medicine: Foundations and Implementation offers overviews, methods and strategies for translating genomic medicine to clinical practice. The book's authors explore incorporating pharmacogenetics into electronic health records, CDS methods and infrastructure for delivery, economic evaluation, the hospital administrations’ role and needs in integration, and patient counseling aspects. The book empowers clinicians, researchers, translational scientists, and data and IT experts to effectively navigate the complex landscape of CDS for pharmacogenomic precision medicine. Illustrative case studies of existing gene networks include CSER, eMERGE, the IGNITE network, DIGITIZE, the CDS Learning Network (RTI), ClinGen, Ubiquitous and CDS Hooks.
