Biomarkers are biological indicators that can be measured to assess health conditions or responses to treatment. They serve as measurable signs of a biological process, disease, or response to a therapeutic intervention, making them crucial in personalized medicine and translational bioinformatics. By providing insights into individual variability in drug metabolism and disease susceptibility, biomarkers facilitate tailored treatment strategies and improve patient outcomes.
