Medicine is the cornerstone of modern therapeutics prescribed on the basis that its benefit should outweigh its risk. It is well known that people respond differently to medications and in many cases the risk-benefit ratio for a particular drug may be a gray area. The last decade has seen a revolution in genomics both in terms of technological innovation and discovering genetic markers associated with disease. In parallel there has been steady progress in trying to make medicines safer and tailored to the individual. This has occurred across the whole spectrum of medicine, some more than others. In addition there is burgeoning interest from the pharmaceutical industry to leverage pharmacogenomics for more effective and efficient clinical drug development.
Dr. Sandosh Padmanabhan MD, PhD, FRCP, FAHA, FBHS, FBPhS is a Professor and Physician at the Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences, University of Glasgow. Dr. Padmanabhan completed his MBBS and MD at JIPMER, Pondicherry, India and was awarded the Gold Medal for MD General Medicine in 1995. His PhD thesis (1999-2003) on G-protein signaling in hypertension was awarded the Bellahouston Medal by the University of Glasgow in 2004, and he received the Austin Doyle Award from the International Society of Hypertension in 2004. Dr. Padmanabhan’s pharmacogenetic genome-wide linkage study led to a BHF Intermediate Fellowship (2006-2009), and he also led a genome wide association analysis of hypertension between 2008 and 2010, resulting in the discovery of a new gene and pathway for hypertension. Dr. Padmanabhan was a visiting fellow to the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT (2010-2012). Currently, he is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, the British Hypertension Society, and the American Heart Association. His active research areas span the genetics of cardiovascular traits, pharmacogenomics and stratified medicine, and hypertension epidemiology.
