Abstract
The primary purpose of ‘omics’ technologies is to understand the intricacy of genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and other molecular mechanisms to reveal the complex traits of human diseases. The significant use of omics technologies and their applications in medicine gear up the study of the pathogenesis of several disorders. The detection of biomarkers in the early onset of diseases is challenging; still, omics can discover novel molecular mechanisms and biomarkers. In this review, the different types of omics and their technologies are explicated and aimed to provide their emerging applications in cardiovascular precision medicine. These technologies significantly impact optimizing medical treatment for individuals to reach a higher level in precision medicine.
