How has discoveries in DNA effected discoveries in medicine?

I am new here, and I am writing a paper for extra credit. I basically know how, I just cannot find any good examples or sources, and I am still a little confused on the whole DNA chapter.

not exactly discoveries in DNA, but you might wanna look up RNA interference(Nobel prize in medicine and physiology in 2005, if i remember correctly)
