Pharmacogenetics is a field of study that focuses on the role of genetics in drug response. It is a rapidly growing area of research within the pharmaceutical industry, as it has the potential to improve the efficacy and safety of drugs. Pharmacogenetics involves the study of genetic variations in individuals that can affect the way they respond to drugs. This includes the study of genetic variations in drug targets, drug metabolizing enzymes, and drug transporters. By understanding the genetic basis of drug response, pharmaceutical companies can develop drugs that are tailored to the individual patient. This can lead to improved outcomes and reduced side effects.
Some companies in the Pharmacogenetics market include 23andMe, Genomics plc, Genomind, and Genos. Show Less Read more
