Genomic analysis is the identification, measurment, and/or comparison of genomic features (like DNA sequences) on a genomic (i.e., the study of all of a person's genes) scale.
The practice of precision medicine utilizes advanced diagnostic tools to identify specific groups of patients on the basis of particular molecular characteristics, and guide their treatment w...
Implementing precision genomic medicine in the pediatric acute care setting has several challenges. First, the diagnosis must be made quickly. Second, the determination of pathogenicity mus...
