The discussion also addresses important challenges, including cost, accessibility, and health equity, offering a balanced and forward-looking perspective on how personalised medicine may reshape everyday clinical practice.

This episode offers an exploration of how personalised medicine is reshaping dermatology, scientifically, clinically, and ethically, and what it means for everyday patient care.
