Genetics
Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in living organisms. It is generally considered a field of biology, but intersects frequently with many other life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems.
Pathology
Pathology (from the Greek roots of pathos (πάθος), meaning "experience" or "suffering" and -logia (-λογία), "study of") is a significant field in modern medical diagnosis and medical research, concerned mainly with the causal study of disease, whether caused by pathogens or non-infectious physiological disorder.

Jerome: For the genetically superior, success is easier to attain but is by no means guaranteed.
From the film Gattaca written by Andrew Niccol
Genetics

Marlon Brando 1994 statement, as quoted in Kosher Sex : A Recipe for Passion and Intimacy (2000) by Shmuley Boteach
Genetics
Genetic engineering crosses a fundamental threshold in the human manipulation of the planet, changing the nature of life itself.
