Genetic Trajectories

Meaning

Genetic trajectories refer to the probabilistic, long-term developmental paths and health outcomes that are statistically influenced by an individual’s unique constellation of inherited genetic variants. While not deterministic, these trajectories represent a predisposed risk or resilience profile for various physiological states, including hormonal imbalances, metabolic dysfunction, or aging processes. Lifestyle and environmental factors act as modifiers, shifting an individual’s realized phenotype away from or toward their baseline genetic potential.
