Clinical medicine is about to embark on an exciting, although harrowing, period of innovation, the result of astonishing advances in genomic science. The current workforce--physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and others--will soon need to adapt to substantial change, driven by genomics, in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. If errors of omission and commission are to be prevented, sustained efforts in workforce education will be needed on the part of medical schools, training programs, and professional societies.
临床医学即将迎来一个激动人心的时期,尽管充满挑战,但这是基因组科学惊人进步的结果。当前的劳动力——医生、护士、药剂师和其他人员——很快将需要适应由基因组学驱动的诊断和治疗策略的重大变化。如果要防止遗漏和错误,医学院、培训计划和专业协会需要在劳动力教育方面做出持续努力。
