Genetic testing identifies gene variations that may be inherited to confirm or rule out a suspected genetic condition or help determine your risk of developing or passing on a condition. Genomic testing looks at ways in which your genes interact and what those interactions mean to your health, providing insights into disease risk, progression or recurrence, which allows for treatments to be personalized. Below you will find resources to help you learn more about genetic testing, as well as genomic testing.
