General Information

This course focuses on the scientific principles and tools of genomic analysis and interpretation that underpin clinical practice. The three-day programme will follow a framework of guided interactive sessions covering key areas of general variant interpretation, using the ACMG framework and online tools (DECIPHER). Building upon this foundation, further specialist areas will be explored, including cancer genetics, cardiac genetics, non-coding variation, CNV analysis and a protein view of variants. These sessions will have a strong interactive theme delivered by experts in the respective fields.

 

This advanced course is suitable for both clinical geneticists (consultants and trainees) and clinical scientists delivering genetic healthcare. Applications from other clinicians who are using genomic data in their everyday practice are also welcome.

 

A limited number of registration bursaries are available to attend this course (up to 50% of the standard registration fee).
