Stratified Medicine Description
Stratified medicine, also known as precision medicine, is at the cutting edge
of a new era for medicine. Our ability to understand how genes, lifestyle and
environment can influence disease, promises to revolutionize healthcare practices.
Stratified Medicine relies on using biomarkers (e. g genes or proteins) to stratify
(segregate) patients into specific groups for diagnosing and treating diseases.
Stratified medicine supports the development of improved technologies and
systems to predict disease, select the best treatment and reduce side-effects
for each individual patient. This approach to healthcare provides more accurate
methods to identify the right treatment, for the right person, at the right time.
