Research Topic
Recent breakthroughs in measurement technologies have enabled the collection of extensive omics data, including individual genomes and molecular profiles in the blood. Furthermore, large-scale biobank studies have facilitated the integration of omics data with clinical health records. Using bioinformatics approaches, we are combining these data to develop predictive models of individual health status transitions and personalized treatment selection, ultimately aiming to achieve precision medicine.
