- Course objectives
- The course acquaints students with basic knowledge in the field of clinical genetics. The aim is to get a basic overview of clinical genetics, to learn the basic rules of inheritance of signs and diseases, to outline the basics of applied genetics in medicine. To get a basic overview of clinical cytogenetics and molecular cytogenetics. To obtain a basic overview of DNA diagnostics of serious inherited diseases.
- Learning outcomes
- Upon completion of the course the student will be able to join the laboratory teams of clinical genetics. The acquired knowledge and practical skills will be able to apply in the laboratory procedures in cytogenetics and molecular cytogenetics, including DNA analysis techniques.
- Syllabus
- Preparation and evaluation of cytogenetic preparations for prenatal cytogenetic diagnostics, chorionic treatment, amniotic fluid. Preparation and evaluation of preparations for postnatal cytogenetic diagnosis - peripheral and fetal blood lymphocytes. The use of molecular cytogenetic methods in clinical cytogenetics (FISH, M-FISH, array-CGH) Long-term cultivation for cytogenetic examination. Isolation, processing and storage of DNA / RNA in the diagnosis of hereditary diseases. Direct and indirect DNA analysis. PCR, electrophoresis, screening methods in DNA diagnostics, fragmentation analysis, sequencing of human DNA in the diagnosis of hereditary diseases. Use of DNA analysis in the prenatal diagnosis of serious hereditary diseases.
