Is epigenomics the next breakthrough in precision medicine?
Epigenomics holds a lot of promise for cancer treatments, but there are still many more questions that we need to answer.

In the future, these important questions will be addressed by personalized epigenomics, which tries to extract information out of a comprehensive picture of a person’s epigenome.
