The advancement of technology is so important, and this article reinforces that. The fact that a smartphone is able to discover mutations in a person's DNA faster and more efficiently than regular testing makes a great asset in the field of genetics. It's also convenient that the prices is not as high as regular testing. It makes the better choice when trying to determine if a cell’s DNA contains a mutation.

With the time and money saved on buying this device, physicians will have quick results for their patients (which is a great thing!). If a patient is notified that he/she has a mutation, this could be helpful with the prevention of tumors and cancer. It is crazy to think of how far technology has come through the generations of science. Being technologically advanced will benefit us all in the long run health wise.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06928036600019776646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360356351594869925.post-49922025818103583752017-09-23T10:28:24.214-04:002017-09-23T10:28:24.214-04:00I find it to be extremely fascinating that we are ...I find it to be extremely fascinating that we are able to do so many things with our smartphones. Everything is faster, more convenient, and smartphones can now help us with our health. Plus, since Genetics is a growing field, with devices like these we can make our genetic health more accessible, and they will be able to tell us our genetic health information and possible genetic mutations in a fraction of the time compared to sending a blood sample to a lab. I personally feel that with the help of these kinds of technologies, it can help us a lot quicker in the long run. We can take action faster. There is no long wait, and we can do the things we need to do to help our bodies a lot faster. With that being said, these kinds of devices will get the results we need to know faster as well, so we will not have to stress more while waiting for our results, and if need be, we can do lifestyle changes faster in order to improve our health.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13485127701103932417noreply@blogger.com
