Welcome to Genomics for the General Practitioner

Genomic medicine is a rapidly evolving field with many clinical applications. While individual genetic conditions are often rare, as a collective, genetic conditions are very common with approximately 60% of people being affected with a disorder that has some sort of genetic background. Genomic technologies are being applied to both monogenetic and complex diseases. Additionally, genomics is informing management of both genetic and non-genetic disease.

This eLearning resource is intended to provide relevant information about genomic medicine to assist General Practitioners in the implementation of genomics into their everyday practice.
