Medical Genomics
Genomics is a branch of science focusing on understanding the function and interaction of genes. Medical genomics is an emerging practice in the medical field where genetic information is applied to medical practice. Information obtained from evaluating a patient's genetic makeup can be used for diagnostic purposes or for determining the best therapeutic regimen for a patient.
