| Genetic
Disease is defined as any of the diseases and disorders that
are caused by mutations in one or more genes. |
| Treatment |
|
| It
is a common misconception that genetic diseases are, by their
nature, untreatable. |
| Insurance |
|
| The
most published fears are that genetic information will reach
insurers and employers. |
Public availability
of the complete human genome represents a defining moment for
both biomedical research and medical practice. The genome
database will speed identification of genes implicated in a variety
of genetic diseases and thus enable more objective and accurate
diagnosis, in some cases even before the onset of clinical symptoms.
