| Opportunities For Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Medicine
|
| Description:
| Lecture by Russ Altman, M.D., Ph.D. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how variation in human genes leads to variation in drug response. One of the major promises of the genome project was to improve medical outcomes for patients by using knowledge of their genetic background. The PharmGKB (Pharmacogenomics & Pharmacogenetics Knowledge Base) is an NIH-funded resource at Stanford University charged with supporting the research community in pharmacogenomics, by storing both genetic variation information and drug-response information, building tools to help scientists visualize and analyze the data, curating the pharmacogenomics scientific literature (both manually and through text processing algorithms), representing pathways of genes that work together to affect drug response, and providing expert annotation of current pharmacogenomic knowledge.
