At the heart of precision medicine lies one concept missing from modern medicine – the unique genetic and biochemical make-up of each individual patient.
Implementation of Personalized Precision Medicine: Expanding the Clinical Vision towards Prevention, Early Detection, and Precision Treatment of Disease to Drive Extended Healthspan establishes a landscape of precision medicine geared towards implementation of fully personalized approaches within precision medicine to facilitate prevention and early detection of age-related disease in each individual. This reference details how these lofty goals are now achievable with the science of today and tomorrow and provides the context, thought process and beginning blueprint to guide researchers and clinicians in more effectively considering the prevention and treatment of complex chronic disease.
Uniquely organized, this reference provides insight into creating fully personalized precision medical treatments. Chapters include conventionally considered data such as genetic inherited risk, current epigenetic modifications, and current biochemical markers but also include less conventional food for thought such as microbiome, mitochondrial function, and dna repair. This provocative landscape makes this reference a valuable addition to the literature expanding precision medicine towards personalized chronic disease prevention and treatment.
- Explores the expanding paradigm of Precision Medicine application highlighting full personalization in precision medicine.
- Explores the gap between precision medicine implementation and medical policy, showing the integration and implementation of technologies in primary care for chronic disease.
- Provides fresh viewpoints and perspectives for researchers and science-minded providers on the forefront of implementation, to be informed of the best available tools and approaches for each individual patient.
Dr Stanford MD, PhD is a physician-scientist and Fellow of the American College of Physicians. He is one of the pioneers in the field of hospital medicine. In 2002, he founded and led a 25-physician group of private practice hospitalists at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. From 2001-2018, he was the physician of record for over 150,000 patient encounters. He was elected by his peers to be Clinical Chief of General Internal Medicine, serving in this capacity from 2017 to 2018. Advances in genomics and precision medicine inspired him to pivot again, this time to precision medicine. He completed Professional Certification in Genetics and Genomics through Stanford University in 2018. In 2018, he founded the Beverly Hills Institute for Precision Medicine and continues to present as the Chief Medical and Scientific Officer. He regularly attends and frequently speaks at precision medicine conferences, most recently at the Precision Medicine World Conference in January of 2020
Laura Kelly DAOM, MATCM, L. Ac, Dipl. OM is a nationally licensed Doctor of Oriental Medicine. She is in general practice in Los Angeles with a focus on resolving chronic disease through personalized precision medicine. This practice has expanded to include telemedicine consults with patients throughout the US as well as consults for practicing physicians on the use of genomics and nutrition in chronic disease resolution. In 2019 she founded Opal Health where she is currently CEO and CSO, creating precision prevention tools for corporate implementation as well as for the general public.
