Alex was recently commissioned to create a cover for JADPRO (Journal of the Advanced Practitioner in Oncology) on Pharmacogenomic Testing. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genomic variation affects an individual's response to medications.
This illustration created by the talented Alex shows the opiod and CYP2D6 gene pairing. By running panels on CYP2D6, found on chromosome 22, doctors can predict correct dosages and even if certain prescriptions are potentially harmful.
