To realize the potential of precision medicine, genetic information must be amassed on a large scale. High-throughput genotyping studies are crucial for generating this volume of data and identifying disease associations. Currently, microarrays are the platform of choice for genotyping, as they allow investigators to survey millions of markers across disease cohorts or populations.
High-throughput genotyping data hold immense value for pharmacogenomics, consumer genomics, population studies, and clinical practice. These studies can identify not only genetic risk factors for disease, but also the genotypes associated with drug response. Eventually, this information can lead to better health management and more successful treatment strategies.
