The social impact of hereditary diseases is enormous: their potentially recurring nature in the same family means that the diagnosis has implications not only for the patient but for all related individuals. Its socio-sanitary cost is high, due to the care required by those who suffer from these diseases and the limited and expensive treatments available. However, in recent years there have been important advances in diagnosis, prevention and therapy, based on the characteristics of the human genome and a genetic component has been recognized in most diseases. To take advantage of scientific and technological advances in the area of ​​genetics, the training of specialized human resources is necessary.


Addressed to:  Health professionals: Doctors, Biologists, Medical Technologists, Nurses, Midwives, Psychologists and Nutritionists.
