Medical Genetics is a roughly 30-hour interdisciplinary course
designed to act as an overview of clinical disorders that have a genetic component.
It surveys many clinical areas and is organized roughly according to genetic etiology
and pathophysiology. An emphasis is given to humanistic and ethical issues pertinent to
genetic diseases. Each lecture will teach principles by clinical example and seek to
inform about diagnostic techniques, treatments and the natural history of disorders.
Clinical patient presentations are offered to reinforce the didactic sessions. Review
sessions and quizzes will seek to emphasize important concepts and offer time for
expanded discussion.
