Abstract excerpt
Our understanding of the genetic basis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has evolved rapidly. This has resulted from a combination of dedicated research in well phenotyped CVD patients, the sequencing of the human genome, and the ready accessibility and decreasing cost of next-generation sequencing technologies. This increased knowledge of the genetic basis of CVDs has heralded the era of precision medicine. This...
