Precision medicine initiatives

Precision medicine is an approach to healthcare that tailors treatment and prevention strategies to an individual's unique genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environment. Instead of using a one-size-fits-all method, it focuses on understanding the specific factors that influence each person's health. This allows for more effective, targeted therapies with fewer side effects, especially in areas like cancer treatment, rare diseases, and chronic conditions. By combining advanced science and data, precision medicine aims to improve health outcomes and provide personalized care that meets each person's unique needs.
