Its geneticist; A geneticist is a scientist who studies genetics, the science of heredity and variation of organisms. A geneticist can be a physician, but not always. Geneticists can also be employed as a teacher or researcher. A geneticist performs experiments and analyzes data to interpret the inheritance of traits. They may create methods to alter or produce new traits in an organism or try to determine the method or mode of inheritance of a gene.
