Syllabus of academic discipline Modern methods of genetic diagnosis

Abstract

According to the curriculum, the study of the elective discipline "Modern methods of genetic diagnostics" is provided in third year in the fifth semester. According to modern medicine, any human pathology is more or less related to heredity. This provision is the basis for teaching and studying medical genetics as a clinical and preventive discipline. Because heredity and variability are integral parts of life, genetics should be the basis of theoretical and clinical training of physicians. The need for genetic knowledge for the doctor is also determined by the constant increase in the proportion of hereditary pathology in the structure of morbidity, mortality and disability of the population. Elective course "Modern methods of genetic diagnosis" introduces students to modern basic methods of diagnosis of hereditary pathology.
