Genomics play a role in 21st century research and clinical practice and Washington University School of Medicine is at the forefront of this evolving field. To continue to meet this challenge, a new cadre of investigators will need comprehensive training in topics related to genomic medicine.

A new seminar series is scheduled for this spring which offers a practical background in molecular biology and genetics, an introduction to genomic research and applications of genomic technologies in the research environment, and an understanding of    the clinical application of gained knowledge. The content will be delivered by Washington University faculty and there will be plenty of opportunities for questions and discussion. Make sure to arrive early and get a good seat!
