In genetic counseling, the professionalâ??s help people learn about genetic conditions, find out their chances of being affected by having a child or another genetic conditioner and make informed decisions about testing and treatment.

This workshop will discuss a variety of topics such as: Draw pedigree for Mendelian and non Mendelian disorders with Example for better understanding of: 1) Metabolic disorders a. Micromulecular Disorders (PKU) b. Macromulecular Disorders (MPS) 2) Neuromuscular disorders a. Autosomal Dominant (CMT) b. Autosomal Receive (SMA) c. X-linked (DMD) d. 3 nucleotide Repeats (HD) e. Mitochondrial Disorders (LHON) 3) Immunodeficiency disease. a. Autosomal Dominant (CGD) b. Autosomal Receive (SCID) c. X-linked (Wiscot-Aldrich)
