Certificate of Achievement
Mary Templeman Hogg - O'Rourke
has completed the following course:
Genomic Medicine: Transforming Patient Care in Diabetes
This course explored the value of understanding the underlying pathological mechanism of a disease, to enable progression from genomic testing to improvements in clinical care; different modes of inheritance for diabetes, the molecular basis of these inheritance patterns, and how this relates to risk; the process of discovering novel genetic mutations in the genome; the pattern of inheritance, to design a strategy for gene discovery, through to laboratory techniques used for genomic sequencing.
