MBS 697: Translational Medicine

Credits 3

The "Translational Medicine" course focuses on bridging the gap between laboratory research and clinical practice by exploring how pharmacogenomic insights can be translated into effective therapeutic strategies. Students will examine the processes involved in translating genomic discoveries into clinical applications, including biomarker identification, drug development, and the implementation of personalized treatment protocols. The course emphasizes the role of translational medicine in improving patient outcomes through tailored therapies based on genetic profiles and explores case studies that highlight successful translational efforts. By integrating principles of pharmacogenomics with clinical research methodologies, participants will develop the skills necessary to navigate the complexities of bringing innovative pharmacogenomic solutions to the forefront of patient care, ultimately enhancing the practice of personalized medicine.
