In this chapter, we will focus on the informatics resources for and implications of precision medicine. We will also provide a basic overview of precision medicine. Informatics is needed for the capture of data, transformation of data into information and knowledge, and - perhaps most importantly - implementation of precision medicine - acting on that new knowledge to improve the health of real people. Electronic health record (EHRs) are an important part of precision medicine both by providing a real world data source as well as a key modality for its implementation.
