Type 2 diabetes and hypercholesterolemia both arise from a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental/lifestyle factors, but treatment practices for these conditions have taken a purely phenotypic approach. Learn how personalised medicine is being applied to treatment decisions in these two conditions, in order to individualise therapy and reduce the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
