Abstract
Since the Human Genome Project’s completion in 2003, scientists have been on a steadfast track to unlock the genome’s secrets, especially regarding health and disease. We’ve made progress in identifying alterations in the genome; however, the interpretation of which changes can be attributable to disease has been slow. In addition to genomics, we’ve now ventured into other omic technologies, such as metabolomics, to achieve our goals. Using a case study of metabolomics in the most heritable cancer syndromes, pheochromocytoma and paragangliomas, I hope to convince you that we are on the edge of translating omics to the clinic.
