Clinical genetics and genomics will exert their greatest population impact by leveraging the rich knowledge of human behavior that is central to the discipline of behavioral medicine. We contend that more concerted efforts are needed to integrate these fields synergistically, and accordingly, we consider barriers and potential actions to hasten such integration.
临床遗传学和基因组学将通过利用行为医学学科核心的人类行为丰富知识,发挥其对人群的最大影响。我们认为需要更加协同一致的努力来整合这些领域,因此,我们考虑了阻碍因素和可能的行动来加速这种整合。
