Simple Summary: Transfer learning is a technique utilizing a pre-trained model's knowledge in a new task. This helps reduce the sample size and time needed for training. These characteristics of transfer learning make it a perfect candidate to use in genetic research. The aim of our study is to review the current uses of transfer learning in genetic research. Here, we overview the use of transfer learning in the mutation detection of different cancers (lung, gastrointestinal, breast, glioma), gene expression, genetic syndrome detection (Down's syndrome, Noonan syndrome, Williams–Beuren syndrome) based on the phenotype of patients, and identifying possible genotype–phenotype association. Using transfer learning in model development increases the final performance of the model compared with models trained from scratch. Artificial intelligence (AI), encompassing machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), has revolutionized medical research, facilitating advancements in drug discovery and cancer diagnosis. ML identifies patterns in data, while DL employs neural networks for intricate processing. Predictive modeling challenges, such as data labeling, are addressed by transfer learning (TL), leveraging pre-existing models for faster training. TL shows potential in genetic research, improving tasks like gene expression analysis, mutation detection, genetic syndrome recognition, and genotype–phenotype association. This review explores the role of TL in overcoming challenges in mutation detection, genetic syndrome detection, gene expression, or phenotype–genotype association. TL has shown effectiveness in various aspects of genetic research. TL enhances the accuracy and efficiency of mutation detection, aiding in the identification of genetic abnormalities. TL can improve the diagnostic accuracy of syndrome-related genetic patterns. Moreover, TL plays a crucial role in gene expression analysis in order to accurately predict gene expression levels and their interactions. Additionally, TL enhances phenotype–genotype association studies by leveraging pre-trained models. In conclusion, TL enhances AI efficiency by improving mutation prediction, gene expression analysis, and genetic syndrome detection. Future studies should focus on increasing domain similarities, expanding databases, and incorporating clinical data for better predictions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
