-Customized treatments based on an individuals genes.
-Advancing quickly
-Pharmacogenetic scientists study the effects on patients responses to drugs used to treat AIDS, allergies, infections, asthma, etc.
-Eventually, each person can get a specific array of drugs that can combat issues without causing side effects]]> 2018-04-09 16:56:22 UTC https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249920372 crawfgia000 https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249920625 all of the genetic material that an individual or a species has ]]> 2018-04-09 16:56:48 UTC https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249920625 studtted000 https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249921126 Medicine isn't ever a cure-all
-DNA affects how the body responds to it
-Because of this, every person responds differently, if only slightly differently, to medicines
-This is why if you go to a doctor, for a medical condition, you can have them sample your DNA to find which medicines will work best for you]]> 2018-04-09 16:57:46 UTC https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249921126 crawfgia000 https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249921191 A unique combination of genetic and environmental factors, which interact in a way that is very hard to predict, determines what each person is like.]]> 2018-04-09 16:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249921191 crawfgia000 https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249921647 Researchers are beginning to use knowledge learned from genome sequencing research to figure out how being healthy and being sick are different at the levels of molecules (Ex: Cancer)]]> 2018-04-09 16:58:44 UTC https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249921647 barajkie000 https://padlet.com/crawfgia000/d9j2ygkyil7h/wish/249923321 -Powerful tool used to identify differences that might be promising targets for new drugs.
