Clinical care centers on standards based on epidemiological studies of large cohorts. However, these studies do not take into account genetic variability. This session discusses the pursuit of personalized medicine through biomarker collection.

Learning Objectives:
Describe the importance of incorporating biomarker collection into clinical trials in the pursuit of developing a more personalized approach to medicine and clinical care
Distinguish the "omics" of biomarkers (proteomics, genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics).
