Chromosomal Disorders

Chromosomal Disorders

by Georgina Cornwall, PhD

Chromosomal disorders are diseases produced as a result of abnormalities in the morphology or deletion of chromosomes. Although not as prevalent as other disorders, chromosomal disorders are still encountered in daily practice and are distinctive for their characteristic clinical manifestations.

In this course, the student will be given an overview of the most relevant chromosomal disorders seen in clinical practice.

For optimal comprehension, the student should be familiar with the basic concepts of molecular and cell biology, with an emphasis on genetics.

Decent presentation but technical stuff need simpler explanations
By Deborah H. on 19. December 2022 for Chromosomal Disorders

I understand that medical genetics is a difficult course to review but improvements are definitely needed in the following areas: 1. State and simplify definitions. Too often i need to refer to Google for a more basic explanation. 2. Please stop assuming basic knowledge is still fresh. I haven't study genetics in 7 years and i have forgotten EVERYTHING! So, along the way and with each new concept please give some foundational information.

Literally worst professor ever, she seems so desoriented and feels like she haven't even prepared the class
