The emerging field of medical genetics which involves precision medicine has become increasingly important in effective patient care. It is an area of immense potential which uses personal information and integration of multi-omics technologies to prevent, diagnose, or treat genetic diseases. The increased investment into this space can be attributed to the fact that treatments based on an individual’s genetic makeup show greater promise in improving health care all in all.
Hareeff Muhammed, Chief Executive Officer, Pantai Premier Pathology said, “An increased interest in expanding knowledge surrounding the human genome has shifted how genetic disorders are treated. An industry-wide acknowledgment of this fact has led to greater efforts to gain insight into how diseases occur at the genetic and molecular levels and an increased commitment to innovative technologies for this space.”
