Genes - which make up your DNA - are molecules inside your cells that you inherited from your birth parents. Sometimes genes are inherited with changes in the DNA, called mutations. Very small changes in the DNA can sometimes cause large issues like cancer. Some inherited mutations can raise a person’s cancer risk later in life. Watch this 7-minute guide from our Precision Medicine video series to learn more about inherited genetic mutations and how testing for these mutations can help prevent and diagnose cancer.
