Abstract

Every day we hear about a new biological mechanism, a new encouraging therapy, a new effective medicine and it seems that we are getting closer to unraveling some mysteries that have been waiting patiently for centuries to be elucidated.

From the discovery of the optical microscope to artificial intelligence, from witch doctors to telemedicine, from penicillin to mRNA vaccines, technology and innovation have had a major impact on improving people's quality of life by reducing human error, improving clinical outcomes, processing data in real time. Recent scientific discoveries and technological advances have improved the ability of specialists to understand the pathogenesis of a disease and have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment. Thus, we can talk today about a more precise, effective, particular medical care known as personalized medicine or precision medicine.
