| Description: | Personalised medicine, is at the cutting edge of a new era in healthcare. Our ability to understand how genes, lifestyle and environment can influence disease promises to revolutionise healthcare practices. Personalised medicine relies on the use of biomarkers (such as genes or proteins) to stratify (or organise) patients into groups of individuals who are at risk of developing a disease, or who are likely to respond better to one therapy over other alternatives. This approach to streamlining healthcare provides more accurate clinical decision making tools to identify 'the right treatment, for the right person, at the right time.' |
