In recent years, multi-omics has emerged as a vital approach in discovery studies. With the advent of high-throughput technologies, it has become feasible for scientists across the globe to perform large scale experiments. One of the revolutionary discoveries that has been added to the multi-faceted omics studies is the ability to measure gene expression at a spatial scale with high resolution. These omics studies have provided a breakthrough in understanding the heterogeneity among individuals at a scale where previous studies could not. With such deeper understanding, scientists, physicians, and oncologists are better informed to choose the right approach in treating patients with complex diseases. However, individualized medicine or precision medicine is still in its infancy and requires studies that are collaborative and multi-institutional. Towards this end, this collection is aimed to attract research articles pertaining to translational medicine with a special emphasis on multi-omics studies in personalized medicine.
Personalized medicine is practiced in many parts of the world in an ad-hoc manner. However, there is no single resource for researchers to access articles pertaining to personalized medicine. Authors will be encouraged to contribute to this field, which will eventually aid in sharing knowledge and challenges.
In view of this, the following themes will come under the scope of this Research Topic:
• Applications of NGS-based multi-omics studies in advancement of personalized cancer medicine
• Single cell multi-omics studies and its application in cancer research
• Advantages of an integrated Omics approach in precision medicine
• Recent advancements in cancer genomics - (e.g. Spatial Omics)
