Does nephrology need personalized medicine?

Systems biology is one of science’s growth areas. Sequencing technologies and software tools developed on the back of the human genome project have reduced the cost of, and therefore increased access to, large and complex datasets (ending in -ome) of genome sequences (genomics), gene expression (transcriptomics) and proteins and metabolites (proteomics and metabolomics). Systems biological techniques integrate these datasets and provide insights into how phenotypes may emerge from […]
