Sharpening precision medicine by a thorough interrogation of metabolic individuality

We describe how using the technology to comprehensively measure an individual's biochemical profile – metabolomics- is integrative to defining individual phenotypes and how it is currently being deployed in efforts to continue to elaborate on human health and disease in large population studies. Finally, we summarize instances where metabolomics is being used to assess individual health in instances where signatures (i.e. biomarkers) have been defined.
