A perspective on the promise of personalized medicine: an interview with Prof William Newman

As the next part of our project, we conducted an interview with Prof of Translational Genomic Medicine William Newman. We talked about what personalized medicine is, what benefits and problems it brings, how it’s already being implemented and what’s its future.
