We are more than our omics.

Today, personalized medicine is essentially based on individual "omics." However there is a need to integrate this approach with a number of data such as pharmacokinetics, optimal dose and duration of drug treatments, age and gender differences, and drug interactions, which are relevant in terms of benefits and risks but are frequently unknown. This requires independent research that should be supported by governments in order to make personalized medicine a reality.
