The Best DNA Test
What is a DNA Test and how does it work? DNA tests have become an essential tool to know our roots, our predisposition to certain diseases and to receive personalized nutrition and lifestyle recommendations. In this article, we compare the best DNA tests available on the market. [...]
Genetic Diversity in Clinical Trials: A Pending Challenge in Personalized Medicine
A recent article in El País has shed light on a crucial issue in the field of personalized medicine: the lack of diversity in clinical drug trials. Most of these trials are conducted in populations of European origin, which can have serious consequences for populations that are not represented [...]
Clinical recommendations in pharmacogenetics
Did you know that nowadays, there are many drugs for which a genetic study is recommended and even mandatory? In recent years, thanks to the development of genomic techniques for massive sequencing and analysis with new bioinformatics tools, many biomarkers have been identified that are associated with how [...]

The arrival of genomic medicine thanks to mass sequencing (NGS)
Currently, the technology known as Next Generation Sequencing, or NGS for its acronym in English, Next Generation Sequencing, is considered the most advanced tool for the study and diagnosis of human genetic diseases. It should be remembered that since the development of the human genome project (Figure 1), in 2001,2 the cost of […]
What is pharmacogenetics and what are its applications
Genomic medicine is the discipline that studies the changes in our DNA and its association with the susceptibility to developing diseases, infections, congenital malformations, etc. Within this broad field of genomic medicine disciplines, pharmacogenetics (PGx) is the branch in charge of studying changes in our DNA and associating them with […]
Pharmacogenetics: Learn how medications affect you.
One of the blocks that we have recently added to our platform is that of pharmacogenetics. It is the biological discipline in charge of studying the effect of the genetic variability of an individual in his response to certain drugs. We are not all the same We do not all respond the same to medications. Our genetics can determine […]
