Pharmacogenomics

Genetic variation plays a crucial role in how individuals respond to drug therapies. The field of pharmacogenomics focuses on how genetic differences influence an individual’s response to medications, leading to variable drug effects. This blog delves into the intricate relationship between genetic variation and drug response, shedding light on the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. Genetic […]

Pharmacogenomics, the study of how an individual’s genetic makeup influences their response to drugs, has undergone a remarkable evolution from its roots in pharmacogenetics to the emerging field of pharmaco-omics. This blog explores the milestones and advancements that have shaped the history of pharmacogenomics, highlighting its past, present, and future implications in personalised medicine. Origins

To explore the intersection of genetics and pharmacology, first we summarise the fundamentals of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics, drawing insights from the research results. Pharmacogenetics Pharmacogenetics is the scientific discipline focused on understanding how genetic variations among individuals influence their response to medications. It connects pharmacology and genetics to predict the efficacy and safety of drugs
