Precision Medicine in the Era of Artificial Intelligence

Dear Colleagues,

We are thrilled to announce and extend a warm invitation to the scientific community to contribute to our Special Issue, focused on a theme that represents the intersection of two of the most promising areas of medical and technological research: precision medicine and artificial intelligence. When combined, precision medicine and artificial intelligence promise to revolutionize clinical practice and improve the quality of life for patients.

In the field of precision medicine, the fusion of innovative technologies with advanced applications of artificial intelligence (AI) heralds a transformative era in the health domain.

At the forefront, AI-driven algorithms are revolutionizing early disease detection and personalized prognosis. By analyzing vast datasets encompassing clinical records, genomic profiles, and biomarker data, these systems empower clinicians to identify subtle disease indicators, enabling timely interventions and preventive measures tailored to individual patients. Moreover, the synergy of AI and multi-omics data integration is reshaping the landscape of precision medicine. Through sophisticated computational approaches, diverse biological datasets—spanning genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and beyond—are harmonized to unravel intricate disease mechanisms and optimize treatment strategies across a spectrum of medical conditions. However, the rapid advancement of AI in healthcare, and, therefore, also in the field of precision medicine, necessitates careful consideration of ethical, legal, and social implications. Privacy concerns, equitable access to AI-enabled care, and the need for robust regulatory frameworks loom large in discussions surrounding AI integration into medical practice. Yet, amidst these challenges lie opportunities for effective implementation strategies. From fostering interdisciplinary collaboration to refining medical education and training, healthcare stakeholders are devising strategies to seamlessly integrate AI into clinical workflows, ensuring its judicious use for the benefit of patients and providers alike.

In essence, the convergence of AI and precision medicine promises not only to revolutionize diagnostics and treatment but also to shape a more personalized, equitable, and efficient healthcare ecosystem.

We invite authors to submit original articles, reviews, perspectives, and other papers that offer a clear, critical, and innovative perspective on the aforementioned, or related, topics.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Personalized Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
