Genome India project

Context?- successful sequencing of 10,000 genomes from diverse populations across India creates a vital genetic map.

Example of use case : Mutations like MYBPC3 (cardiac arrest) and LAMB3 (lethal skin condition) highlight the value of an India-specific database in understanding the genetic basis of diseases.

Personalized Treatment Strategies: Precision medicine leverages genetic information to match patients with therapies most likely to be effective, and minimizes adverse reactions.

Analyzing genetic data can uncover predispositions to diseases, enabling personalized risk assessments and early interventions.A genome is all the genetic material in an organism, like a full set of instructions for making and keeping a body running. To figure out someone's genome, scientists take a sample, often from blood, and break it into smaller bits.
