Genetic Variation in Disease SusceptibilityAbstract
In the field of biomedical research, understanding the genetic basis of illness susceptibility has emerged as critical. Genetic diversity influences an individual's susceptibility to a variety of diseases, ranging from common ailments like diabetes and cardiovascular disease to uncommon afflictions like Huntington's disease. Researchers hope that by resolving the complex interplay between genetic variables and illness vulnerability, they will be able to develop more tailored preventive, diagnostic, and treatment options. This article goes into the approaches used to investigate the influence of genetic diversity on disease susceptibility, emphasizing major discoveries and future prospects in this rapidly evolving subject.
