The aim of the human genetics teaching is to provide students with basic knowledge of the inheritance and variability in humans in the light of current developments in this field. Also, during this course, students will learn through an interdisciplinary approach, how to monitor the healthy and the sick and how to use the acquired knowledge in all medical disciplines during the studies.
