GWAS can be applied to various areas in toxicology:
Pharmacogenomics: Identifying genetic factors that affect a personâs response to drugs, helping to optimize drug safety and efficacy. Environmental Toxicology: Understanding genetic susceptibility to environmental toxins, which can help in assessing risk factors for diseases. Nutrigenomics: Studying how genetic variations interact with diet and influence the body's response to dietary toxins. Occupational Toxicology: Identifying genetic risk factors for adverse health effects due to workplace exposures.
