Genetic Testing

ConferenceSeries International is an amalgamation of Open Access publications and worldwide international science conference and events established in the year 2007 with the sole aim of making the information on Sciences and technology ‘Open Access’. ConferenceSeries publishes 400 online open access scholarly journals in all aspects of Science, Engineering, Management and Technology. OMICS has 21 days rapid review process involving 30,000 editorial team members with 3.5 Million readers. OMICS ‘Open Access’ has been instrumental in taking the knowledge on science & technology to the doorsteps of ordinary men and women. Research scholars, students, libraries, educational institutions, research centers and the industries are main stakeholders that benefit greatly from this knowledge dissemination. ConferenceSeries also organizes 300 International Conferences annually across the globe, where knowledge transfer takes place through debates, round table discussions, poster presentations, International workshops, International symposia and exhibitions.
Genetic testing is a type of medical test that identifies changes in chromosomes, genes, or proteins. The results of a genetic test can confirm or rule out a suspected genetic condition or help determine a person’s chance of developing or passing on a genetic disorder. The purpose of genetic testing is to allow for early detection, which in turn can lead to early intervention to prevent the onset of symptoms or minimize disease severity. Testing has helped thousands of individuals and families prevent or prepare for hereditary diseases and make informed decisions about their healthcare.
Genetic testing helps in finding genetic diseases in unborn babies, finding out if people carry a gene for a disease and might pass it on to their children, screening embryos for disease, testing for genetic diseases in adults before they cause symptoms, making a diagnosis in a person who has disease symptoms, figuring out the type or dose of a medicine that is best for a certain person.

Current researches in Genetic testing include

Competitive conference:
Newborn Screening and Genetic Testing Symposium held during October 27-30, 2014 at Anaheim, CA

Conclusion:
International conference on Genetic Testing focusses on the challenges of integrating genetic testing into clinical and public health practice, identified obstacles and gaps in genetics education of health professionals. It helps in the recognition of the numerous positive developments in the field of genetics and the need to have an adequately educated health workforce to appropriately apply and interpret genetic tests.
