Genetic Testing: It’s Complicated

We readily use the term "genetic testing" in daily conversations. But we are dangerously close to oversimplifying a broad and multidimensional field of medical research. The fundamental challenge lies in how we translate complex, molecular technologies in a laboratory into actionable genetic information that you or your doctor find useful and upon which life decisions can be based. As the promise of personalized medicine attracts more and more attention in the medical profession, those hopes are being pinned on your DNA.

Technologies for genetic testing have been well developed and applied in academic and clinical research projects. In fact, the term "testing" is by far too…
