Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is a subset of precision medicine that focuses on the genetics behind different pharmaceutical interactions, toxicities, and efficacies. PGx improves drug discovery and ...

The scientific terms for these two determinants are pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and both are critical considerations in the field of pharmacogenomics. Pharmacokinetics encompasses four ...

Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genetic variation influences responses to drugs. This includes how genetic variants affect drug metabolism, efficacy and toxicity, with the goal of improving ...

Typical approaches from pharmacogenomics combined with systems biology and bioinformatics support these routes (simulations, metagenomics and metabolic network modeling), as well as the patient ...
