Directory of Pharmacogenomics Resources

Home > Health > Medicine > Pharmacology > Pharmacogenomics

This category is for sites about the closely related fields of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics. Both involve themselves with the variation in drug reaction and expression in individuals with different genetic makeup; pharmacogenetics considers the influence of one or several individual genes, whereas pharmacogenomics deals with the entire genome.
