Did you know that something can be genetic without it being inherited from a parent? In other words, it’s possible to have a genetic condition that did not come from your mom or dad, and it is possible to have a child with a genetic change that you did not pass on to them.
In this video, you'll learn the difference between germline and somatic variants as well as genetic vs hereditary. Other terms mentioned include; Mosaicism and De Novo
These are not your typical biology videos. This series is for anyone interested in learning about genetic testing today, what it can and can’t test, and how it relates to YOU. Subscribe and check back every Friday for a new short episode explaining something new to know in genetic medicine.
