[Efforts toward the Development of Pharmacist Involvement in Genomic Medicine].

Since September of 2017, the Department of Pharmacy at Keio University Hospital has participated in activities of the A-3 Group in the "Program for Promoting a Platform of Genomics-based Drug Discovery" conducted by the Japan Agency for Medical Research and Development (AMED). The A-3 Group works to develop programs for fostering human resources in genomic medicine in order to solve various problems, and the Keio Department of Pharmacy plans and holds twice-yearly seminars for pharmacists interested in genomic medicine. In this review, we give an overview of efforts toward the development of pharmacists involved in genomic medicine, and we present the results of questionnaires about previous seminars.
