Inherited disorders result from genetic mutations that are passed down from one generation to the next, affecting health and development. This book explores the molecular mechanisms behind these conditions, such as cystic fibrosis and sickle cell anemia. It provides insights into genetic testing, counseling, and therapeutic strategies, serving as an essential guide for geneticists and healthcare providers.
Owen Wright is an expert in the molecular genetics of inherited disorders, studying how genetic mutations lead to disease. His research spans both common and rare genetic conditions. Owen has authored numerous publications on gene therapy and molecular diagnostics. He specializes in understanding gene-environment interactions and their role in disease development. His contributions are crucial in advancing personalized medicine and genetic counseling. Owen also collaborates extensively on developing new treatments for genetic disorders.
