Pharmacogenomics is the understanding of genetic differences that causes people to metabolize xenobiotics (mostly drugs) differently. Pharmacogenomics consider the whole genome whereas pharamacogenetics consider only 1 or a few genes at most.

Biology is the ONLY way to help against disease.
Everything you can think of in the medical field ... gene
therapy, drug discovery and development, genetics,
pharmacogenomics, vaccines, etc... these are all highly based on
biology.

It is controlled by a recessive allele. The gene encodes a
chloride ion channel that is required to make sweat, mucus and a
few other things. One copy of the gene is sufficient to prevent
cystic fibrosis, and it is only when both copies are defective that
the person would have the disease and show symptoms.
