Course objectives
This subject offers basic knowledge about clinical genetics, about main genetic features of signs and diseases and introduces genetic medical applications. Students obtain basic overview in clinical cytogenetis methods and mulecular cytogenetics, DNA-diagnostic methods of inherited diseases and possibilities of genetic consultancy.
