Obesity Genes, Personalized Medicine, and Public Health Policy.

Current obesity reports - 1 Sept 2015

Caulfield Timothy

Abstract excerpt

The personalized medicine movement-also known as precision medicine and personalized genomics-has embraced the belief that genetic risk information can be used to motivate healthier choices and meaningful behaviour change. While a genuinely exciting area of research, there are numerous policy issues associated with a focus on the use of genetic risk information to personalize approaches to obesity prevention.
