GENC 610 Seminar in Medical Genetics/Journal Club

This seminar is a one hour weekly course which includes presentations by genetic counselors, geneticists, primary care physicians, and students. The committed pool of participants and presenters span a wide array of institutions including Augustana University, Sanford Health (in multiple communities including Sioux Falls, Fargo, Bemidji, and Bismarck), the University of California-San Diego, the greater San Diego community, and other interested academic and healthcare institutions. The intent is to raise the academic interest and scholastic skills of both students and faculty through critical review of the literature and presentations (both case presentations and literature presentations). The series encourages life-long learning, critical analysis of the literature, and development of presentation skills. The format is to alternate weekly between journal club and case presentations (referred to as Genetic conSequences), as well as to alternate between student and faculty presentations. Because of the wide geographic nature of the participants, interactive video will be used.
