Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Medicine research areas focus on tailoring medical treatments based on an individual's genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environment. By optimizing drug efficacy and safety for each patient, pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine contribute directly to SDG 3 by improving health outcomes and reducing adverse drug reactions


Science and Technology

Description of Subtheme:

Research within this subtheme focused on relationship between an individual's genetic makeup and their response to pharmaceuticals. The core objective of this research is to uncover how an individual's genetic profile influences the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs within their body. By analyzing genetic variations and their impact on drug interactions, researchers in this field can tailor medication regimens to each patient's unique genetic blueprint. This personalized approach has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by optimizing treatment outcomes, minimizing adverse effects, and offering a more precise, patient-centered model of medicine. Research will be focused on emphasizing the importance of individualized care plans, maximizing therapeutic benefits, and minimizing side effects through pharmacogenetic testing.

Research Action Plan:

Investigating how an individual's genetic makeup affects the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs.
