Incorporate genomics into every applicable area of your clinical practice with this complete how-to guide A Doody's Core Title for 2024 & 2022! Precision Medicine: A Guide to Genomics in Clinical Practice is a comprehensive, yet succinct overview of the practice of genomic medicine. It is written for general healthcare practitioners, specialists, and trainees with the goal of providing detailed guidance on how to incorporate genomic medicine into daily practice. Features that make this book valuable to every practice: * Intentionally avoids excessive technical content and consistently emphasizes real-life patient care and decision support * Follows the course of a human life, beginning before conception through pregnancy, childhood, and adulthood, discussing the current and future applications of genomics and precision medicine at each stage * Organization allows healthcare providers to quickly and easily find the information relevant to their practice. * The authors highlight common pitfalls - technical and ethical - that might complicate the delivery of quality genomic healthcare * Enhanced by eleven valuable appendices that cover important topics ranging from the basics of genetics to ethical issues to regulation and reimbursement If you are searching for a clinically relevant, non-technical resource that will teach you how genomic medicine can and should be practiced in your specific field of interest, Precision Medicine: A Guide to Genomics in Clinical Practice belongs on your desk.
