Presented by the Center for Individualized Medicine

Individualized medicine, genomics, and associated technologies that drive patient care are rapidly advancing, outpacing the education available. Individualized medicine, focusing on what makes each of us unique, is becoming an important consideration in patient care. The Genes & Your Health podcast miniseries aims to distill what is being learned related to genomics into practical content the primary care provider and health care teams can use in patient care.

Denise M. Dupras, M.D., Ph.D., Moderator

 

Target Audience

This activity is appropriate for Allied Health Professionals, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, physicians, physician assistants, resident fellows, and scientist research PhDs.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the Mayo Clinic COVID-19 Live Webinar Series course, learners should be able to:

  • Apply appropriate genomic terminology as it would be used in their clinical practice.
  • Examine new and emerging genomic technologies that support clinical health outcomes.
  • Evaluate relevant applications of genomic technologies within clinical practice to support patient care. 
  • Define strategies to overcome obstacles for implementing genomic technologies within clinical practice.

Attendance at any Mayo Clinic course does not indicate or guarantee competence or proficiency in the skills, knowledge or performance of any care or procedure(s) which may be discussed or taught in this course.

Genomics and Healthcare, Why Does it Matter?
Denise M. Dupras, M.D., Ph.D.
Teresa M. Kruisselbrink, M.S., CGC
Matthew J. Ferber, Ph.D.
William C. Palmer, M.D.

For so long we've heard Genetic Testing is coming. Well guess what, its here!  We have over 25 million people who have chosen to participate in direct to consumer testing alone. What does this mean for primary care and does it matter? Find out in our first podcast part of our Genes & Your Health miniseries from the Center for Individualized Medicine.

How does viral genetics influence transmission, diagnosis and severity of COVID-19?
Denise M. Dupras, M.D., Ph.D.
Matthew Binnicker, Ph.D.
Andrew D. Badley, M.D.

COVID-19. Variants. The future. Does one test fit all? Does the vaccination help with mutations? What makes the Delta variant more transmissible? Is there a hidden CoV-2 out there that we're missing? Join our 2nd episode of our Genes & Your Health miniseries from the Center of Individualized Medicine to learn about viral genetics influence on transmission, diagnosis, and severity of COVID-19.
Pharmacogenomics and its value for Primary Care
Denise M. Dupras, M.D., Ph.D.
Jessica A. Wright, Pharm.D., R.Ph.
Pharmacogenomics helps to identify how your patient’s DNA may affect their response to medications. But there's a lot of different genes! How do we get started? What resources are out there? Do we have to worry about every drug a patient's on? Find out these answers and more in the Genes & Your Health miniseries episode 3 from the Center for Individualized Medicine.
Genomics and Cancer: Primary Care Impact and Research Advances
Denise M. Dupras, M.D., Ph.D.
Niloy Jewel (Jewel) Samadder, M.D.
Can we find the cause of a patient’s cancer? Is it possible to provide targeted treatment to prevent future cancers by understanding what genetic predispositions a patient or their family members have? In a recently published study, nearly one in six to one in eight cancer patients, depending on which type of cancer they had, carried a genetic predisposition to the development of their cancer. How can we translate these findings into our practice for the benefit of our patients and their families? Tune in to episode 4 of our Genes & Your Health miniseries from the Center for Individualized Medicine.
How Does Your Microbiome Impact Your Health?
Denise M. Dupras, M.D., Ph.D.
Marina R. Walther-Antonio, Ph.D.
What is the microbiome? How does the microbiome interact with our body? How much of us is nurture, how much is nature? The whole concept of microbiome may be a new idea, but have no fear- this 5th instalment of the Genes & Your Health miniseries from the Center for Individualized Medicine is here to help answer those questions and more!
