    Glossary Genetic Variants

    differences in DNA sequence among individuals

    Genetic variants, also known as genetic polymorphisms, are differences in the DNA sequence among individuals. These variations can affect how genes function and can influence traits such as hair color, susceptibility to diseases like alopecia, and response to medications. While some genetic variants have no impact on health, others can be significant in understanding genetic predispositions and developing personalized medical treatments.
