Genomics is the study of how the genes within a single set of chromosomes interact with each other and with the individual’s environment. Genomic testing involves investigating large sections of genetic material and information, from which broad or specific conclusions may be drawn.
Some disorders or complex disease that have been studied include:
- Asthma
- Cancer
- Diabetes
- Heart Disease
These diseases are caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, rather than a single genetic defect.
