Precision Medicine
Precision medicine, the tailoring of healthcare based on an individual’s genetics, lifestyle and environment, has been used with success in monogenic diabetes but several barriers have prevented its large-scale application throughout diabetes. Diabetologia published a series of reviews outlining previous achievements, current limitations and future promises of precision diabetes in the May 2017 issue of the journal.
