These genetic tests leverage Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) to provide a more precise understanding of a patient’s absolute genetic risk of complex disease, allowing for the creation of early, personalized intervention strategies in clinical practice. She will review advanced phenotyping and how to utilize PRS along with Dried Blood Spot testing to implement precision cardiology.
