Abstract
|
|
|
|
Thanks to recent advances in multi-omics technologies, we are moving closer to the precision medicine era. Precision medicine is an approach that takes into account individual differences in genes, environments, and lifestyles. Precision medicine is also called “P4 medicine,” wherein the 4 P’s refer to preventive, predictive, personalized, and participatory medicine. Epilepsy is a heterogeneous clinical condition characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures and their complications. Many patients continue to suffer from drug-resistant epilepsy and are worried about encountering unpredictable seizures during their daily lives. In this review, the ongoing revolution of precision medicine in epilepsy care and its impact on clinical practice will be discussed.
