Medical genetics is a specialty of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and management of hereditary diseases and genetic disorders. This field combines elements of classical genetics, molecular biology, and biochemistry to understand how genetic variations affect human health. Medical geneticists evaluate and advise patients and families on genetic risks, interpret genetic test results, and participate in the management of genetic diseases. In addition, they work in prevention, prenatal diagnosis, and genetic counseling, providing vital information for decision-making related to health and reproduction.
