SCOPE
Personalized medicine (or precision medicine) aims to provide a tailor-made prevention and treatment strategy based on an individual’s genotypic and phenotypic characteristics. Advances in this field have increased the ability to predict patient outcomes and to prescribe a unique treatment protocol based on an individual’s needs.
This call for papers aims to showcase the breadth of research within personalized medicine and its impact on innovating the healthcare horizon. We encourage the submission of preclinical, translational and clinical studies related to personalized medicine, as well as qualitative studies exploring patients’ and healthcare providers’ experiences with individualized treatment. All article types in scope for PLOS ONE and PLOS Genetics are welcomed. PLOS ONE particularly encourages the submission of protocols – Registered Report Protocols, Study Protocols and Lab Protocols.
