Genetics and society infographic - Genotype based dosing of Warfarin
Abstract
Genetic testing is a tool that is becoming more common in personalized medicine as it allows healthcare providers to more accurately customize treatments to individual patients. My infographic displays the result of a study comparing genotype-based warfarin dosing with traditional warfarin dosing. The findings of this study have an impact on personalized medicine and society as warfarin is an important drug with a narrow therapeutic window. My infographic will show this impact to the general public in a concise and accurate manner.
