What Are the Challenges of Using Genomic Techniques in Toxicology?
Despite their potential, several challenges remain in the application of genomic techniques in toxicology:
Data Complexity: Genomic data sets are often large and complex, requiring sophisticated bioinformatics tools for analysis and interpretation. Inter-individual Variability: Genetic diversity among individuals can complicate the interpretation of genomic data, necessitating large sample sizes to achieve statistical significance. Ethical Considerations: The use of genomic information raises ethical concerns related to privacy, consent, and the potential for discrimination based on genetic information.
