Abstract:
Precision medicine is an emerging approach for disease treatment and prevention , which attempts to explore the effective means for protecting human health by synthetical consideration of individual variability in genes , environment and life style.Precision medicine has the prominent property of multidisciplinary intercrossing and fusion , the development of which claims rapid clinical application of advanced technology in the research of basic medical science.What kind of development opportunities are laboratory medicine confronted with under the novel medical mode? How can laboratory medicine and its researchers do to seize these opportunities and meet the challenges of precision medicine ? These questions are preliminary discussed in this paper.
