Description
Are you considering to improve your genetic knowledge?Use 15 min per day to watch crisp videos on geneticsThe course designed with the videos structured around a central theme, DNA methylation in this seriesUnderstanding genetic concepts could boost career advancement of laboratorians of every class.You have the chance to learnWhat are the genetic diseases that exhibit mild to severe symptoms in different individuals?How to calculate empirically whether somebody with disease-specific genetic changes will exhibit disease symptoms?Could knowledge of genetic heterogeneity help in the decision to undergo gene testing?These questions are being answered in the course.Complete the course if you are inclined to know.The course titled "Genetics 101 for health and science students" helps in learning genetics and equip you with the foundational knowledge to learn complex genetic topics.The course is divided into two sections.Section 1 describes genetic concepts and disease state like penetrance, expressivity, anticipation.Section 2 describes DNA methylation, an epigenetic phenomena and the effect on health and disease. Modulation of epigenetics could be used as treatment for cancers and for general health improvement through focused action in nutrition.Go forward in your learning by enrolling in the course
