Fundamentals of Human Molecular Genetics

Overview:

Since we’ve been able to sequence the entire human genome, there has been a huge shift in the science of human genetics. There is now a wealth of resources which can be harnessed by researchers to identify certain genetic variants that influence our health. This will eventually help us to understand the underlying molecular pathology of a whole host of diseases that we don’t understand at the moment. In the future, we will be able to use treatments and prevention strategies, and you could be a part of the future of this course.
