Emerging technologies in personalized medicine.

A variety of technologies are emerging to help clinicians provide patient-specific diagnosis and therapies. This special edition of the Molecular Aspects of Medicine is a collection of mini reviews covering a broad range of topics, from systems to model patient variants and discover therapies (Microphysiological systems with patient derived tissue and CRISPR-humanized animal models), to new modalities in diagnostics and therapeutics (Extracellular Vesicles, RNA therapeutics, microbiome and molecular dynamics).
