In the future, doctors may be able to evaluate your DNA to check for genetic markers related to specific medical conditions or h

armful reactions to medications. Your personalized genetic profile could be kept on record and referred to in order to develop personal medical treatment based on your unique DNA sequencing. Scientists have found that just small variations in a specific section of your DNA can help determine how well some medications can work for you or if they would be beneficial at all. Would you want to have your DNA profile kept in your medical record as a reference for your doctors?

First things first, I'd call this a questionnaire rather than a problem but anyways. Your DNA profile is literally your identity, and to have that stored in the medical records would be useful in some other cases besides medical issues. It is like having a copy of your fingerprint in the government's hands. Thus one may find it useful as another way to identify someone when the need occurs. As for purposes such as to be referred for the development of personal medical treatment (I believe you're referring to project CRISPR) , is not as necessary because the way they identify mutated genes or "infected" DNA or cells is by referring it to the normal DNA found in any other cells in your body, and if cells are that easy to access, they do not have the need to keep a medical record just for your DNA sequence along with all your gene codes, especially when you are performing investigations on the same species, humans, who have the same number of chromosomes with the similar genes.

Mademuasel [1]
Some of the evidence comes from fossils, and some comes from studies that show how similar living things are to one another. By the 1930s, scientists had also learned about genes. As a result, they could finally explain how characteristics of organisms could pass from one generation to the next and change over time
