The Emerging Field of Regenerative Medicine: Personalized, Precision Medicine
Every patient is unique — their biology, genetics and biomolecular makeup — and should be treated uniquely, as each patient is likely to respond differently to specific medical treatments and therapies. This emerging reality is rapidly driving medicine from the traditional ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach toward a ‘personalized’ or precision-based viewpoint. This revolution is rapidly being adopted across the medical world, perhaps none more so than within the emerging field of regenerative medicine.
Regenerative medicine, in conjunction with personalized medicine, is responsible for the next major paradigm shift in modern medicine. However, neither regenerative nor personalized precision medicine are subjects traditionally found in the curriculum of U.S. medical schools. As such, this emergence has been met with skepticism, doubt and confusion.
Patients now recognize that understanding their biological makeup will allow them to choose the best diet, lifestyle and even medical and regenerative therapies to activate internal, ‘natural healing.’ They are more willing than ever to try innovative technologies to enhance and optimize their overall health, wellness and longevity. This biohacking revolution is not only evolving patients from passive users to proactive seekers but is also a powerful driving force moving medicine forward after decades of stagnation.
