Genetic research spans several critical areas, including:
Human Genetics: Studies the human genome to identify genetic causes of diseases and develop targeted therapies. Cancer Genetics: Investigates genetic mutations that lead to cancer, aiming to improve treatments and preventive measures. Population Genetics: Examines genetic variation within and between populations to understand evolutionary processes and genetic diversity. Pharmacogenomics: Explores how genetic variations affect individual responses to drugs, paving the way for personalized medicine. Genetic Engineering: Involves manipulating DNA to create organisms with desirable traits, such as disease-resistant crops.
