Abstract
At the present time the most dramatic changes in the epidemiology of hereditary diseases is the transition from theoretical principles of population genetics in public health to the active use of molecular genetic technologies for individuals. Genetic discoveries are the basis of individualized medicine, as well as the source of new knowledge about the load of hereditary diseases in populations with their subsequent translation into healthcare system.
