Question

What is the most challenging issue facing genome sequencing?

Answer 1

Answer:

the ethics of using information from genomes at the individual level

Explanation:

The human genome project (PGH) aims to identify all genes responsible for our normal and pathological characteristics. Long-term results will surely revolutionize medicine, especially in the area of prevention. Thousands of genes can be analyzed at the same time, and people will be able to know if they have an increased predisposition to certain diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, hypertension, or Alzheimer's disease, and treat themselves before symptoms appear.

Alongside these advances, numerous ethical issues are already being discussed and others will arise. These ethical issues are a major challenge to human genome sequencing, and among these issues, the ethics of using genome information at the individual level have been the most challenging.
