What is Personalized Medicine?

Personalized medicine is a healthcare approach that tailors treatments and prevention strategies to an individual’s genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. By analyzing a patient’s unique biological data, it enables more precise diagnoses, targeted therapies, and optimized drug responses.

Key applications include genomic testing, which helps identify disease risks and drug compatibility, cancer treatments that target specific mutations, and AI-driven health insights for customized care plans. It reduces trial-and-error in treatments, minimizes side effects, and enhances patient outcomes.

With advancements in genomics, AI, and big data analytics, personalized medicine is transforming healthcare, shifting from a one-size-fits-all approach to precision-based interventions for better disease management and prevention.
