Drug Safety Matters dives into the fascinating field of pharmacogenomics and the implications it has for tailored treatments and safer prescribing practices.

Understanding that variation can inform more refined choices of drugs and doses – ultimately preventing undesired side effects. Join us as we discuss past, present and future of pharmacogenomics with Uppsala Monitoring Centre’s Qun-Ying Yue.
