An Omic Vision of a Diagnostic / Prognostic Future?

An article by Chen et al., published recently in the journal Cell, offers us what Eric Topol has already dubbed “panor-omic” insight into a potential future — one in which our genomic data can be cross-correlated against other “omic” data (including transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic, and autoantibody profiles) to give individualized insights into our current clinical […]
