Innovations in precision medicine and genomics revolutionize healthcare by enabling more personalized and targeted treatments for individuals based on their unique genetic makeup. Advances in genomic sequencing technologies lower the cost and time required to decode the human genome, making genetic information more accessible to clinicians and researchers. This improves precision medicine, where treatments are tailored to a patient's genetic profile, optimizing efficacy and minimizing side effects. With these innovations, challenges persist, including issues related to data privacy, ethical use of genetic information, and the need for equitable access to cutting-edge treatments. As the field evolves, precision medicine may transform personalized healthcare, improving outcomes and quality of life for patients. Innovations in Precision Medicine and Genomics provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements, applications, and implications of digital health technologies across various domains. It offers insights into emerging trends, best practices, and future directions in digital health. This book covers topics such as drug delivery, nanotechnology, and pharmaceutics, and is a useful resource for business owners, medical and healthcare professionals, biologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
