How can genetic information be used to reduce the burden of genetic diseases in future generations?

Genetic information can be used to reduce the burden of genetic diseases by:

• Early detection: Identifying individuals at risk for genetic diseases and providing early intervention.
• Personalized medicine: Tailoring treatments to an individual’s genetic makeup.
• Carrier screening: Identifying carriers of recessive genes and providing reproductive options.
• Genetic editing: Exploring the potential of genetic editing technologies to correct genetic mutations before conception.
