Genomic Technologies in Clinical Diagnostics : Next Generation Sequencing

This postgraduate-level course will help you understand new and established genetic technologies, and their application to clinical practice.

This course focuses on genomic sequencing. By the end, you will be able to:

• demonstrate an understanding of the molecular principles behind next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies;
• identify appropriate applications of these technologies to clinical scenarios within both diagnostic and research settings;

and evaluate alternative applications of next generation sequencing technologies outside of DNA sequencing, such as RNA seq and ChIP-seq.
