genetic engineering
The generic term "genetic engineering" refers to a branch of biotechnology that consist of a set of techninques for isolating genes, cloning them and introducing them into an organism

definition
The purpose of genetic engineering in medicine may be, for example, to express a protein within an organism other than the organism of origin by exploiting the ribosomes and protein synthesis of the host organism

applications
Genetic engineering in medicine is applied in:
- genetic screening
- genetic mapping
- molecolar diagnosis
- treatment of diseases

discoveries
Recent breakthroughs in the field of genetic engineering in medicine have been made possible by recombinant DNA technology. In this research segments of nucleic acid molecules are modified, recombined, and inserted into other cells where expression of the reported genes takes place
