The Precision Health Toolkit is a collection of guides on topics of interest and utility for the faculty and staff at the University of Michigan.
"Precision Medicine: A form of medicine that uses information about a person’s genes, proteins, and environment to prevent, diagnose, and treat disease. In cancer, precision medicine uses specific information about a person’s tumor to help diagnose, plan treatment, find out how well treatment is working, or make a prognosis. Examples of precision medicine include using targeted therapies to treat specific types of cancer cells, such as HER2-positive breast cancer cells, or using tumor marker testing to help diagnose cancer. Also called personalized medicine." NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms
