摘要

Genetic diagnosis in a plethora of conditions is useful in clinical management of individuals and their families. The clinicians need to understand the underlying genetic etiology in undiagnosed cases to determine the appropriate clinical management. Lack of understanding and training in the different aspects of medical genetics is one of the major deterrents for efficient genetic evaluations in several cases in clinical practice. To address this issue, the Genetic Research Center initiated a one-month detailed training course for clinicians on various aspects of genetics to strengthen their clinical skills and capabilities for efficient genetic diagnosis. In the last five years, through annual workshops conducted by the center, 128 medical practitioners were trained. The information collected through written communication from the participants has been summarized. This report presents perceptions of participants about the need of the training course, feedback from the participants about this course and outcomes of the training course. This analysis supports the need for adequate training for medical professionals and further highlighted the benefits of such training programs in active patient management and for initiating research activities focused on understanding the underlying genetic etiology in several cases.
