Genetic Analysis of Complex Human Diseases

GENETIC ANALYSIS OF COMPLEX HUMAN DISEASES is a comprehensive four-day course directed toward physician-scientists and other medical researchers. The course will introduce state-of-the-art approaches for the mapping and characterization of human inherited disorders with an emphasis on the mapping of genes involved in common and genetically complex disease phenotypes. The overall focus is a broad-based understanding of the problems and solutions to the design and execution of disease gene mapping projects using Human Genome Project resources.
