Integrating Genomics into Clinical Practice: Recommendations and Challenges

Abstract

Baker Chan

Genomics has revolutionized medical research and clinical practice by providing insights into the genetic underpinnings of diseases and responses to treatments. Despite its potential, the integration of genomics into routine clinical practice presents several challenges. This article reviews current recommendations for the implementation of genomics in clinical settings, explores the benefits and limitations of genomic medicine, discusses ethical and legal considerations, and suggests strategies to overcome barriers to widespread adoption. By addressing these issues, healthcare providers can better understand how to incorporate genomic information into patient care effectively.
