Description
Human genetics is a branch of biology that studies how human traits are determined and passed down among generations. Explore this exciting field to better understand how your genes help shape your traits and health. Study of the inheritance of characteristics/traits from one generation to another i.e. from parents to children. This inheritance in humans does not differ in any fundamental way from that in other organisms. Genetic disorders; often are described in terms of the chromosome that contains the gene that is changed in people who have the disorder. If the gene is on one of the autosomes (first 22 pairs of chromosomes), the genetic disorder is called an autosomal condition. If the gene is on the X chromosome, called an X-Downloaded condition. Human genetics research generates knowledge/data to improve individual and community healthThe research can also reveal information about individual susceptibility to genetic disease and hence about the individual’s future health. It has been long known that drug toxicity and efficacy have a genetic component and hence such data are becoming increasingly important in drug development. It is very important in promoting health and preventing disease. The study of human genetics can have important medical, social, and legal impactsThis course is designed to give a basic understanding of the important concept in Human Genetics. The course will start with an introductory video along with the importance of Human Genetics. The focus of the course is to understand the different types of genetic disorders along with important examples; Autosomal Dominant, Autosomal Recessive, X-Downloaded Dominant, and X-Downloaded Recessive. The course will then focus on the details of Pedigree analysis of different types of genetic disorders as mentioned above.
