Epigenetics in Precision Medicine

Epigenetics in Precision Medicine

Epigenetics in Precision Medicine. Ed. 1 (Academic Press, Elsevier)

Our CEO Dr. José Luis García-Giménez has edited «Epigenetics in Precisiom Medicine», Ed.1 (Vol.30). A new volume of Translational Epigenetics Series edited by Academic Press (Elsevier).

Epigenetics in Precision Medicine examines the challenges of advancing epigenetic research and translating findings to the medicine and drug discovery in different areas of medicine, as well as current solutions; chapter authors discuss how to leverage epigenomic technologies, applications, and tools, such as next-generation sequencing #NGS, to discover new epigenetic biomarkers for clinical settings.
Epigenetics in Precision Medicine focuses on complex epigenetic mechanisms in several pathologies including cancer, metabolic disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, bone disease, infertility and immune-related disorder, and explores how epigenetics contributes to precision medicine, not only by improving in vitro diagnostic, but by providing new therapeutic approaches to treat human disease. The book P

provides a thorough grounding in epigenetics-driven precision medicine, with emphasis on developing and implementing early diagnosis and prognosis biomarkers, and supporting patient stratification

The book includes the following chapters:

  1. Perspectives and future directions of Translational Epigenetics in Personalized and Precision Medicine
