At this point, Cornelis says this is largely unknown
but could have great implications for the field of precision medicine.

Each of us could be potentially responding to caffeine differently,
and it's possible that those differences can extend beyond that of caffeine,” Cornelis said.

Van Dyck painted a portrait of the brothers Lucas and Cornelis de Val, Flemish artists.
This makes sense, conceptually, but the genetic research confirms it and further re-emphasizes the notion that not everyone responds to a
single cup of coffee in the same way,” Cornelis said.

But Cornelis and her collaborators were surprised to find that the gene GCKR,
which has been repeatedly linked to glucose and lipid metabolism in independent studies, may also play a role in metabolizing caffeine, according to this new research.
For this study, Cornelis led a team of investigators from the United States,
Sweden, the United Kingdom, Germany and Switzerland in a genome-wide association study of caffeine metabolites measured in 9,876 individuals of European ancestry from six population-based studies.
