Personalized Medicine in Blood Disease of Children
This special issue belongs to the section "Methodology, Drug and Device Discovery".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of the Journal of Personalized Medicine aims to highlight the current state of the research and current practice on personalized medicines in children's blood non-malignant disorders, such as haemoglobinopathies and bleeding disorders. It aims to collect, share, and expand knowledge on the genetic and molecular basis of phenotypic variation in these disorders, and on the use of omics and digital science, leading to the identification of possibly successful candidate diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Moreover, the Special Issue will explore the complexity of conducting personalized medicine clinical studies in children affected by rare haematological diseases, including patient registry standardization, ethics, feasibility, cost, and patient engagement and roles. Papers may also address the use of digital tools and advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) for preliminary results. Original articles and reviews are welcome.
