The book's chapters over the foundational aspects of pharmacogenomics, including drug metabolism, drug discovery, development, and testing, and then detail studies of key health conditions and the potential therapeutic applications of pharmacogenomics. Diseases covered include diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, psychiatric disease, cancer, pulmonary and respiratory diseases, viral diseases, gastroenterology, autoimmune diseases, immunosuppressants, and, finally, an overview of computational resources. This is the perfect resource for pharmaceutical science graduate students to learn the key concepts of the area. However, researchers and graduate students in the related fields of genetics, pharmacoepidemiology, molecular biology, and medicinal chemistry will also benefit from the structured approach of the book.

Showkat Ahmad Ganie
Showkat Ahmad Ganie (Ph.D.) is currently working as Assistant Professor at Department of Clinical Biochemistry, School of Biological Sciences, University of Kashmir, Srinagar, J&K, India. His area of research is focused on various horizons of plant biochemistry and its application in human health. Dr. Ganie has keen interest in free radical biology, oxidative stress, inflammation, diabetes, cancer biology, therapeutic targets, and medicinal plant-based research. His research team work hard for elucidating/verifying various pharmacological properties of traditionally claimed medicinal herbs. His current research highlights the role of enzyme like protein kinases in regulating hyperlipidaemia. Dr. Ganie is exploring plant compounds that could modulate such kinases and ameliorate diseases associated with hyperlipidaemia. We also evaluate the role of various inflammatory markers in the pathology of inflammation and related disorders. Dr. Ganie is also engaged in exploring various epigenetic mechanisms involved in chromatin dynamics and remodelling, implicated in various human pathologies.
