Precision Medicine

/prɪˈsɪʒən ˈmɛdɪsɪn/noun
ELI5 mode

Precision medicine is a revolutionary healthcare strategy that tailors medical treatments to an individual's unique genetic profile, lifestyle, and environmental factors, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. This method enhances effectiveness by predicting who will benefit from specific therapies and minimizing unnecessary side effects, and it's increasingly applied in fields like oncology and rare diseases to drive better patient outcomes.
