Genomics is a field of study focusing on genes and how they interact to impact disease. Translational research aims to adapt experimental findings into medical interventions. Translational genomics thus creates an integrative approach of applying genomic information to influence disease at a prevention, diagnosis, or treatment level.
The starting point for an interaction between a patient and a clinician is almost always a set of clinical facts (aka a phenotype). Phenotype-first medicine is the standard way in which the p...
