Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" id="embr201438480-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>In their enthusiasm to implement genomics‐based personalized medicine, researchers, clinicians and policymakers have missed two crucial considerations: environmental factors and epigenetics. Both of these must be crucial components of future research into tailored health solutions for individuals. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" id="embr201438480-blkfxd-0001" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pghms10tk1" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
