The current efforts of Precision Medicine with the aim of “discovering genetic causes of disease and finding new drugs that will target dangerous mutations” may prepare the ground for the “magic bullets” of Paul Ehrlich - compounds that would seekout specific disease-causing agents - to become a therapeutic reality. Precision Medicine’s approach is to prevent and treat diseases that take into account people’s individual variations in genes, environment, and lifestyle. Making use of Precision Medicine-generated new knowledge will require development of Precision Drugs
