Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue “Genetic Testing in Molecular Pathology and Diagnosis” aims to explore the latest advancements and applications of genetic testing within the realm of molecular pathology. This Special Issue will cover a wide range of topics, including the development and validation of novel genetic tests and their integration into clinical practice. Focus will be placed on how these genetic insights contribute to a deeper understanding of disease mechanisms, inform therapeutic decisions, and enhance personalized medicine approaches. We encourage submissions that highlight cutting-edge research and reviews that elucidate the molecular underpinnings of genetic disorders and the innovative methodologies employed in genetic testing. This Special Issue seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state and future directions of genetic testing in molecular pathology, offering valuable insights to researchers, clinicians, and healthcare professionals dedicated to improving patient outcomes through advanced genetic diagnostics.
Dr. Marco Fabiani
Guest Editor
