Medicine in the post-genomic era

Genome Medicine publishes peer-reviewed research articles, new methods, software tools, reviews and comment articles in all areas of medicine studied from a post-genomic perspective. Areas covered include, but are not limited to, disease genomics (including genome-wide association studies and sequencing-based studies), disease epigenomics, pathogen and microbiome genomics, immunogenomics, translational genomics, pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine, proteomics and metabolomics in medicine, systems medicine, and ethical, legal and social issues.

    DNA-PK inhibition boosts Cas9-mediated HDR

    Transient pharmacological inhibition of DNA-PKcs can stimulate homology-directed repair following Cas9-mediated induction of a double strand break, and is expected to reduce the downstream workload.

  • Genomics of epilepsy

    Candace Myers and Heather Mefford review how advances in genomic technologies have aided variant discovery, leading to a rapid increase in our understanding of epilepsy genetics.

    CpG sites associated with atopy

    Thirteen novel epigenetic loci associated with atopy and high IgE were found that could serve 55 as candidate loci; of these, four were within genes with known roles in the immune response.

Featured review

In search of new treatment for chronic painIn search of new treatment for chronic pain
Stephen McMahon and colleagues review treatments for pain relief, which are often inadequate, and discuss how understanding of the genomic and epigenomic mechanisms might lead to improved drugs.
