The last decade has seen a revolution in genomics, both in terms of technological innovation and the discovery of genetic markers associated with disease. In parallel, translational research has moved steadily towards making medicines safer and tailored to the individual.
The Handbook of Pharmacogenomics and Precision Medicine, Second Edition
serves as a comprehensive resource to understand the rapidly advancing field of pharmacogenomics and its goal to deliver the right drug at the right dose to the right patient at the right time. The book provides a detailed but accessible review of the entire field from basic principles to applications in various diseases. Chapters are written by international experts to allow readers from a wide variety of backgrounds, clinical and non-clinical (basic geneticists, pharmacologists, clinicians, trialists, industry personnel, ethicists) to understand the principles underpinning progress in pharmacogenomics and precision medicine, the successes, failures, and challenges ahead.This new edition has been thoroughly revised in each disease area and updated to cover advances in next generation sequencing, precision oncology, proteomics, metabolomics, stem cells genomics, CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, and biologics, as well as government and public programs in pharmacogenomics, including the NIH Precision Medicine Initiative, 100K genome project, and the emerging role of the citizen scientist in rare disease study.
- Fully updated and expanded to cover new -omics driven technologies and pharmacogenomics of each disease area
- Provides clinical and non-clinical researchers with practical, actionable information supporting translation of precision medicine
- Thoroughly explains the fundamentals of genetics, genomic epidemiology, bioinformatics, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics
- Addresses global implications of pharmacogenomics and precision medicine for drug discovery and public health
Clinical and translational researchers across medical disciplines, genetics, genomics, molecular biology, molecular diagnostics, and bioinformatics; pharmacologists working with clinicians on these studies; genetic counselors; students in genetic, genomics, molecular biology, and pharmaceutical science
