Genomics of common and rare inherited diseases
This module offers you the opportunity to study and apply the traditional and contemporary strategies and techniques used to identify genes responsible for both rare inherited (Mendelian) disorders and common polygenic diseases.

Omics techniques and technologies and their application to genomic medicine
"Omics" describes a range of analytical technologies, including genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics and proteomics, that are used to characterise large pools of biological molecules.
While genomics and transcriptomics often involve the use of next generation sequencing (NGS) there are a range of technologies that can be used to explore the metabolome and proteome. Collectively these technologies can be used to identify genetic variants and biomarkers and can provide functional insights into disease mechanisms and treatment responses.
This module provides a comprehensive introduction to a range of "omics" techniques with an emphasis on the use of NGS in healthcare

Introduction to counselling skills in genetic medicine
This module aims to equip you with the counselling and communication skills to support patients whose care will be influenced by genomic investigations. You will bring the experience of your current clinical practice, and be taught the knowledge, skills and behaviours to incorporate genomic healthcare into your role

Public health genomics: the application of genomics in infectious diseases
This module will provide students with a public health/clinical led understanding of Infectious disease and clinical pathogen genomics. The module will provide an introduction to pathogen biology, covering pathogen fundamentals, including core pathogen biology, pathogen transmission, pathogen genome structure and drug resistance.

Pharmacogenomics and Stratified Healthcare
It aims to develop background understanding about the latest developments in the science and applications of pharmacogenomics and stratified health care. You will gain an understanding of the general concepts of how genetic variation can affect the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a drug or cause immune-mediated adverse reactions. The module will use examples of pharmacogenomic tests that are relevant to clinical practice.
The course is spread over 17 weeks. 22 hours of lectures will be released over the first 9 weeks. Weeks 10, 11, 12, 14 and 15 are for self-directed learning and preparation for the assessments in weeks 13 and 16.
