Benefits of precision medicine [2]

Diagnose disease more accurately

Select optimal therapies and target medicines and dosages precisely

Increase safety, reduce adverse drug reactions

Detect onset of disease at the earliest moment, incl. detection of early subclinical correlates of neuronal death prior to clinical (motor) manifestation

Shift emphasis in medicine from reaction to prevention (i.e., protection of neurons to avoid neuroal death)

Increase the efficiency of the health system by improving quality
