    The Role of Data Analytics in Personalized Medicine
    (Research Output Journal of Engineering and Scientific Research, 2025) Gakire Munyaneza H.
    Personalized medicine seeks to revolutionize healthcare by tailoring treatment strategies to individual biological, clinical, and behavioral profiles. Central to this approach is data analytics, which enables the integration, interpretation, and application of vast and varied datasets from genomics and electronic health records to wearable sensor outputs and patient-reported outcomes. This paper explores how data analytics underpins personalized medicine by examining key methodologies, including data collection, integration, modeling, and predictive algorithms. We assess the evolution of bioinformatics tools and the emergence of phylogenetic and machine learning frameworks to identify disease risks and optimize interventions. The study also highlights practical applications, such as hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis, and discusses barriers like data heterogeneity, lack of standardization, and ethical concerns related to data privacy and governance. By addressing these challenges, data analytics not only improves the precision of medical decisions but also paves the way for sustainable, scalable, and ethically grounded healthcare innovations.
