Human genetics is a general study of inheritance as it occurs in human beings. It encloses a variety of overlapping fields which includes classical genetics, cytogenetics, molecular genetics, biochemical genetics, genomics, population genetics, developmental genetics, clinical genetics, and genetic counseling. Genes are the most common factor of the qualities of most human-inherited traits. Accordingly, study of human genetics can answer questions about human nature, can help understand diseases and the development of effective treatment and help us to understand the genetics of human life.
Gene therapy is a preliminary technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease. Similarly, these techniques may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery. Where, somatic gene editing, changes the DNA in cells of an adult or child to treat disease, or even to try to enhance that person in some way. The changes made in these somatic cells would be permanent but would only affect the person treated.
Genomics is also known as a field of biology focusing on the structure, function, evolution, mapping, and editing of genomes. Generally, genome is an organism's complete set of DNA, including all of its genes. Genetics, which refers to the study of individual genes and their roles in inheritance, genomics aims at the collective characterization and quantification of all of an organism's genes. They may direct the production of proteins with the assistance of enzymes and messenger molecules. Successively, proteins make up body structures such as organs and tissues as well as control chemical reactions and carry signals between cells. Generally, Genomics also involves the sequencing and analysis of genomes through uses of high throughput DNA sequencing and bioinformatics to assemble and analyze the function and structure of entire genomes.
Human fertilization is the union of a human egg and sperm, occurring in the ampulla of the fallopian tube. Result of this union, leads to the production of a zygote cell, or fertilized egg, initiating prenatal development. Similarly, the process of fertilization involves a sperm fusing with an ovum. Most common sequence begins with ejaculation during copulation, follows with ovulation, and finishes with fertilization. And, embryogenesis is the process of initiation and development of an embryo from a zygoteor a somatic cell. Embryo development occurs through an exceptionally organized sequence of cell division, enlargement and differentiation.
Evolutionary genetics is the recent study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary change, which also includes topics such as the evolution of genome structure, the genetic basis of speciation and adaptation, and genetic change in response to selection within populations. Whereas, population genetics is the study of the genetic composition of populations, including distributions and changes in genotype and phenotype frequency in response to the processes of natural selection, genetic drift, mutation and gene flow.
Developmental genetics is the main study of how genes control the growth and development of an organism throughout its life-cycle. And, quantitative genetics, or the genetics of complex traits, is the study of those characters which are not affected by the action of just a few major genes. Its basis is in statistical models and methodology, albeit based on many strong assumptions. While these are formally unrealistic, methods work.
Pediatric geneticists are generally trained to identify the causes and natural history of these disorders. They may also suggest tests and treatments that can help in understanding and caring for your child’s condition. Similarly, most children are born healthy with no medical problems or birth defects. However, some children are born with differences in body structure, brain development, or body chemistry that can lead to problems with health, development, school performance, and/or social interaction
Cytogenetic is known as branch of genetics that studies the structure of DNA within the cell nucleus. This DNA is condensed during cell division and form chromosomes. These cytogenetic study the number and morphology of chromosomes by using chromosome banding techniques (classical cytogenetic) or hybridization fluorescently labeled probes (molecular cytogenetic). Therefore, the number and morphology of chromosomes in a cell of a particular species are always constant, in most cells of the body (with the exception of reproductive cells and others such as the liver). This is a characteristic of each specie; in humans such as the number of chromosomes are 46.
Generally, multiple DNA repair pathways maintain genome stability and ensure that DNA remains essentially unchanged over the life of a cell. Various human diseases occur if DNA repair is compromised, and most of these impact the nervous system, in some cases exclusively. However, it is often unclear what specific endogenous damage underpins disease pathology. Accordingly, the types of causative DNA damages are associated with replication, transcription, or oxidative metabolism; other direct sources of endogenous lesions may arise from aberrant topoisomerase activity or ribonucleotide incorporation into DNA.
Cancer Genetics is the study of cancer caused by certain changes to genes that control the way our cells function. Some gene changes can cause cells to evade normal growth controls and become cancer
The study of genes influences the development and function of the Nervous systems. The changes in genes and chromosomes can affect the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles causing Neurogenetic disorders

Nutrigenetics presenting a gene-nutrient interaction. Examines how genes and nutrients interact at the molecular level. It explains the relationships among genes, diet, and health outcomes
Pharmacogenetics is the reactions due to drug therapy based upon their genetic makeup or genes. It refers to the gene that influences the response to a drug and how a person's genes affect how he or she responds to medications. Pharmacogenetic tests are the most relevant method that looks for genetic variants that are associated with variable responses to specific medications.
Personalized medicine is the tailoring of medical treatment to the individual characteristics of each patient. The approach relies on scientific breakthroughs in our understanding of how a person’s unique molecular and genetic profile makes them susceptible to certain diseases. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genes affect a person's response to drugs. This relatively new field combines pharmacology (the science of drugs) and genomics (the study of genes and their functions) to develop effective, safe medications and doses that will be tailored to a person's genetic makeup.
Genetic counselling is the process through which knowledge about the genetic aspects of illnesses is shared by trained professionals with those who are at an increased risk or either having a heritable disorder or of passing it on to their unborn offspring. A genetic counsellor provides information on the inheritance of illnesses and their recurrence risks; addresses the concerns of patients, their families, and their health care providers; and supports patients and their families dealing with these illnesses.
Reproductive genetics is health care that focuses on genetic risks or conditions that can be passed from parent to child through their genes during a pregnancy. Genes contain instructions for our traits, including aspects of our health. Everyone has a few genes that don’t work correctly due to small changes (mutations) within them. Most times, these mutations do not affect our health, and we don’t even know we have them. Our child can randomly inherit these mutations from us in the genes we pass down, which may or may not cause our child to have health problems.
Immunogenetics is the study of the genetic basis of the immune response. It includes the study of normal immunological pathways and the identification of genetic variations that result in immune defects, which may result in the identification of new therapeutic targets for immune diseases. Genetics is the science researching the transfer of characteristics from one generation to the next. The genes of an organism (strands of DNA) and the transfer of genes from the parent to the child generation of an organism in the scope of possible variations are the basis of genetics.
