Genomics and precision medicine and their impact on endocrinology

This is my first note as an Advisory Editor of our journal Endocrine Connections which seeks to expand coverage on the generic area of endocrine genetics. I am honored to be selected to assist in this role. I have served endocrinology and genomic medicine for more than three decades and I am delighted to see the developments of the latter and their impact on the former. Endocrine Connections is right to want to cover more endocrine genetics, as precision medicine (that is largely based on genomics) becomes the cornerstone of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of almost all conditions affecting human metabolism and is part of everyday clinical practice in endocrinology.
