Speaker: Dr. Gualberto Ruano
President & CEO of Genomas, Inc., Director of Genetics Research at Hartford Hospital and Adjunct Professor in medical faculties at George Washington University & the University of Puerto Rico


Physiological genomics (physiogenomics) utilizes an integrated approach composed of genotypes and phenotypes and a population approach deriving signals from functional variability among individuals. DNA-guided medicine will cross over the existing specialty silos in organized medicine, and redefine the layout of the health system. Physiogenomic applications and case studies of DNA-guided medicine for clinical neuroscience, cardiovascular medicine and diabetes management will be presented in detail.
