Listen to the podcast for the healthcare journal on predictive genetics

Viktor Furman, CEO of GHC Genetics, and Renáta Michalovská, head of the GHC Genetics laboratory, were guests on the Zdravotnický deník podcast, where they discussed with Tomáš Cikrt what predictive genetics actually offers today, its potential, and its clear limitations. In the podcast, they also addressed topics such as

➡️ Making genetic analyses available to the general public and ensuring their correct interpretation

➡️ The role of the physician vs. self-examination and self-treatment

➡️ Quality and regulation of genetic services in the Czech Republic, the importance of laboratory certification

➡️ Coverage of tests by public health insurance vs. self-pay models

➡️ Genetic predispositions in the field of immunity

➡️ Screening tests for colorectal and lung cancer – who they are intended for, how they are performed, and what steps follow a positive result

Predictive genetics has a firm place in modern medicine. However, its professional execution, interpretation, and integration into standard healthcare are key.
