@havepeacewithgod, short answer is pharmacogenomics (PGx) at the Center for Individualized Medicine at Mayo Clinic. PGx is the study of how your genes may affect your body's response to, and interaction with, some prescription or over-the-counter medications.

You can read more about PGx at Mayo Clinic here: https://www.mayo.edu/research/centers-programs/center-individualized-medicine/patient-care/pharmacogenomics/patients
