Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is to provide information about cancer genetics and cytogenetics and to learn its relevance to the clinic. It is also aimed to learn the roles of genetic and cytogenetic anomalies in the formation and progression of cancer. In addition, it will be learned how cytogenetic and molecular genetic information can be a guide in monitoring the prognosis of cancer patients and in their treatment. |
Course Content: | To learn the effects of genetic mechanisms disrupted in cancer on the formation and development of cancer. Learning the roles of tumor suppressor and oncogenes in cancer development. Familial inheritance in cancers. To learn the clinical applications of cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic data. |
The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Ability to evaluate expert knowledge 2) To understand the interdisciplinary interaction 3) Current and high-level knowledge research ability in the field 4) To deepen and develop the relevant program's own knowledge in the field 5) To learn the effects of genetic mechanisms deteriorated in cancer on the formation and development of cancer. |
