Medical Mystery

Why don’t all patients respond the same way to different medications? This pathway explores how a patient's genetic makeup can impact the effectiveness of certain drugs, and how treatments can be tailored using an approach called precision medicine. This pathway complements Activity 1 from the Amgen Biotech Experience Exploring Precision Medicine curriculum. To learn about the digital supports for this curriculum, see the Amgen Biotech Experience Exploring Precision Medicine Cluster. For more information on this classroom and lab-based curriculum, see the Teaching and Learning Materials from the Amgen Biotech Experience.
