Abstract
When the human genome was decoded at the turn of the new millennium, it was thought this would open new avenues into treating all kinds of diseases. It did that, however, it also made us realize that there were many diseases that were related to the genes we inherited. Even so, our genes don’t determine the state of our health, except if we are studying a single gene disorder, such as Down’s syndrome.
