Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Precision medicine is a dynamic area embracing diverse approaches that allow the targeting of new medicines, screening programs or preventive healthcare strategies, including the use of genomic technologies, also potentially taking account of patient preferences. Health insurance plans are increasingly considering different precision medicine interventions for coverage and reimbursement. Precision medicine interventions are also being integrated into clinical care for a range of medical conditions and purposes. The Journal of Personalized Medicine aims to publish a collection of articles that explore challenges and opportunities in the field and fresh insights to ongoing discussions and debate in precision medicine from the US and abroad. We will consider original research, systematic reviews, and well-designed case studies and analyses that report empirical work presenting experiences and perspectives about integrating precision medicine in clinical practice.
