Precision medicine is a medical model that proposes the customisation of health care, with medical decisions, treatments, practices, or products being tailored to the individual patient, instead of a one‐drug‐fits‐all model. In precision medicine, diagnostic testing is often employed for selecting appropriate and optimal therapies based on the context of a patient’s genetic content or other molecular or cellular analysis. Tools employed in precision medicine can include molecular diagnostics, imaging, and analytics. The main aim of the study is to create awareness of precision medicine among medical students. The survey was conducted through an online platform, Google forms. A self-administered questionnaire of close-ended and yes or no questions were prepared and circulated among the medical students. The analysis of data was done by using the SPSS software version 20. The Pearson Chi-square analysis was done in comparison with the gender of the respondents.The results showed that 56.9 % of the students are familiar with the word precision medicine. 57% of the students felt that including precision medicine in their curriculum is worth, and 81.1% responded that precision medicine enhances their practice in future. The Pearson chi-square analysis showed that there is no correlation between the gender of the students and awareness of precision medicine. To conclude, the study showed that the awareness of precision medicine among medical students is moderate.
