Our occasional series on precision medicine at Nemours continues with a look at medical genetics and genetic counseling. According to the American Society of Human Genetics, medical genetics is any application of genetic principles to medical practice. This includes studies of inheritance, mapping disease genes, diagnosis and treatment, and genetic counseling, all offered here at Nemours.
