The exciting era of precision genomic medicine and health has arrived.
In 2025, clinicians and scientists can make accurate diagnoses and provide targeted therapies to their patients according to well-defined, biologically-informed disease subtypes, accounting for individual differences in genetic make-up, behaviours, cultures, lifestyles and the environment.
Recent advances in science and technology, particularly in the field of genomics, has led to an explosion of new information on what underlies health and what constitutes disease and has ushered in this new era of medicine.
However the appropriate education to allow for the implementation of these medical advances in an effective, efficient and safe way remains inadequate.
This European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) course (2.5 day/ 5 themed sessions) has been developed in partnership with the Canadian College of Medical Genetics (CCMG) and Human Genetics Society of Australasia (HGSA) to help bridge this gap.
Participants may attend in-person (120 places) or online.
Contributions from over 20 world class educators/experts in the field of precision medicine, from multiple clinical and academic institutions, will provide an up-to-date practical knowledge of the area and equip the attendees with the basic principles (current and future) of precision medicine in a way so they can be applied to any area of medical practice/ interest.
Appropriate CPD/CME credits will be provided.
