Precision or personalized medicine through clinical genome and exome sequencing has been described by some as a revolution that could transform healthcare delivery, yet it is currently used in only small fraction of patients, principally for the diagnosis suspected Mendelian conditions targeting cancer treatments. Given burden illness our society, interest to ask how can be constructively integrated more broadly into routine practice betterment public health. In November 2014, 46 experts...

Sleep is critical to health and functionality, several studies have investigated the inherited component of insomnia other sleep disorders using genome-wide association (GWAS). However, focused on duration are less common. Here, we used data from participants in Coriell Personalized Medicine Collaborative (CPMC) (n = 4,401) examine putative associations between self-reported duration, demographic lifestyle variables, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) better understand genetic...

There is currently great interest in using genetic risk estimates for common disease personalized healthcare. Here we assess melanoma risk-related preventive behavioral change the context of Coriell Personalized Medicine Collaborative (CPMC). As part on-going reporting activities within project, participants received a assessment including information related to their own self-reported family history and variant showing moderate effect size (1.7, 3.0 respectively heterozygous homozygous...

The knowledge, attitudes, skills, and training of professionals regarding complicated grief influence their practice. We conducted 30 semi-structured interviews with psychiatrists, psychologists, counselor/psychotherapists; the preliminary findings were contextualized via three experts in research/practice. Findings suggest that did not substantially rely on research evidence, favoring instead personal professional knowledge. They expressed concern possible pathologization normal might arise...
