Genetic testing, also known as DNA testing, is used to identify changes in DNA sequence or chromosome structure.

Genetic testing can also include measuring the results of genetic changes, such as RNA analysis as an output of gene expression, or through biochemical analysis to measure specific protein output.

In a medical setting, genetic testing can be used to diagnose or rule out suspected genetic disorders, predict risks for specific conditions, or gain information that can be used to customize medical treatments based on an individual's genetic makeup.

Genetic testing can also be used to determine biological relatives, such as a child's biological parentage (genetic mother and father) through DNA paternity testing, or be used to broadly predict an individual's ancestry.

Genetic testing of plants and animals can be used for similar reasons as in humans (e.g. to assess relatedness/ancestry or predict/diagnose genetic disorders), to gain information used for selective breeding, or for efforts to boost genetic diversity in endangered populations.

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method widely used to make millions to billions of copies of a specific DNA sample rapidly, allowing scientists to amplify a very small sample of DNA (or a part of it) sufficiently to enable detailed study.

PCR was invented in 1983 by American biochemist Kary Mullis at Cetus Corporation; Mullis and biochemist Michael Smith, who had developed other essential ways of manipulating DNA, were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1993.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2.

The first known case was identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019.

The disease quickly spread worldwide, resulting in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms.

It is an important branch in biology because heredity is vital to organisms' evolution.

Gregor Mendel, a Moravian Augustinian friar working in the 19th century in Brno, was the first to study genetics scientifically.

Mendel studied "trait inheritance", patterns in the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring over time.

He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete "units of inheritance".

This term, still used today, is a somewhat ambiguous definition of what is referred to as a gene.

Las Vegas, often known simply as Vegas, is the 25th-most populous city in the United States, the most populous city in the state of Nevada, and the county seat of Clark County.

The Las Vegas Valley metropolitan area is the largest within the greater Mojave Desert, and 2nd-largest in the Southwestern United States.

Las Vegas is an internationally renowned major resort city, known primarily for its gambling, shopping, fine dining, entertainment, and nightlife.

The Las Vegas Valley as a whole serves as the leading financial, commercial, and cultural center for Nevada.
