Ma ka haʻiʻōlelo State of the Union i ka pō nei, ua hoʻolaha ʻo Pelekikena Obama i nā hoʻolālā no ka "Precision Medicine Initiative." Akā he aha ke ʻano o ia mea?

ʻO ka lāʻau lapaʻau pololei kahi ʻano o ka lāʻau lapaʻau pilikino e hoʻohana i ka genome kanaka e hana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. Ua loaʻa i ka poʻe ʻepekema ka nui o ka ʻike ma o ke kaʻina ʻana i ka genome kanaka, a e kōkua kēia hoʻolālā hou i ka lawe ʻana i kēlā ʻike i loko o nā keʻena kauka a me nā halemai e hana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. ʻAʻole hiki i nā lāʻau lapaʻau ke hoʻololi no ka maikaʻi, akā hiki i nā kauka ke kōkua i nā maʻi e pale aku i kekahi mau maʻi e pilikia ai lākou.

"I kēia pō, ke hoʻouka nei wau i kahi Precision Medicine Initiative hou e hoʻokokoke aku ai iā mākou e hoʻōla i nā maʻi e like me ka maʻi ʻaʻai a me ka maʻi diabetes - a e hāʻawi iā mākou āpau i ka ʻike pilikino e pono ai e mālama pono iā mākou iho a me nā ʻohana," i ʻōlelo ʻo Obama i kāna haiolelo.

(E ʻike pono e heluhelu i 5 mau Life Takeaway mai kā Obama's West Point ʻechlelo no ka mea hou aʻe mai ka Pelekikena.)
