Learning outcomes

The Course will aim at giving the basics of human and medical genetics, in order to be able to understand the principles of transmission of normal and abnormal inherited traits, as well as the development of inherited biological variation. At the end of the course the student should be able to draw a human pedigree, to distinguish the various types of mendelian inheritance, to estimate the genetic recurrence risks of mendelian and complex disorders, to understand and interpret normal and abnormal human karyotypes, and to understand the ethical, social and medical issues relating to prenatal genetic testing.

Program

The basis of hereditary traits. Mendel's laws. Pedigree drawing. Autosomal dominant, recessive, and X-linked disorders. Non mendelian inheritance (triplet disease expansion, mitochondrial disorders). General and medical cytogenetics and cytogenomics. Standard human karyotype. Anatomy of human choromosmes. F.I.S.H and array-CGH. Chromosome abnormalities (numerical and structural). Prenatal diagnosis. Clinical genetics: genetic counseling. Preimplantation diagnosis. Genetic testing. Regenerative medicine and stem cells. Bioethical issues.
