nter-individual variability has been a major hurdle to

optimize disease management. Precision medicine holds

promise for improvinghealthandhealthcare via tailor-made

therapeutic strategies. Herein, we outline the paradigm

of pharmacometabolomics-guided pharmacogenomics.

We envisage merging pharmacometabolomic and

pharmacogenomic data (to address the interplay of

genomic and environmental influences) with information

technologies to facilitate data analysis as well as sense

and decision-making on the basis of synergy between

artificial and human intelligence. Humans can detect

patterns, which computer algorithms may fail to do so,

whereas data-intensive and cognitively complex settings

and processes limit human ability. We propose that

better-informed, rapid and cost-effective multi-omics

studies coupled to information technologies allow for data

reproducibility and robustness in genotype-to-phenotype

correlations.
