Protein analysis can make diagnoses more accurate and treatments better targeted to individual patients. Researchers have used personalized proteomics to devise a successful treatment for a patient with uveitis, a potentially blinding eye disease that can have many causes, making it particularly difficult to diagnose and treat effectively.
