National Society of Genetic Counselors, Washington, DC 2001-11-04 The much anticipated completion of the Human Genome Project promises to dramatically alter our understanding of disease etiologies, processes and consequences. Genetic counselors can anticipate that new directions will impact changes in roles, patient care, education, legislation and research while creating interesting ethical dilemmas. This conference will provide learning opportunities that address these recent and anticipated advances in genetics and prepare the genetic counseling profession for what has yet to be discovered. The conference will provide learning opportunities in didactic lectures, workshops, practice-based symposia and newly incorporated into the program, mini-courses - intensive 4 hour learning experiences that allow for greater depth into select topics. Participants will be eligible for 25 contact hours, or 2.5 continuing education credits. |
