Course - Cambridge, United Kingdom
A joint initiative of the Wellcome Trust and the Royal College of Pathologists and aimed primarily at trainee pathologists or haematologists, this residential course inaugurated in 2012 aims to introduce participants to the rapidly evolving field of the molecular diagnosis of cancer. Clinical scientists entering the field of molecular diagnosis are also encouraged to apply.
The course consists of a series of practical, laboratory-based sessions covering current diagnostic methodologies, followed by talks and demonstrations of next generation sequencing platforms, including the latest developments in genomic technologies. In addition, the ethical, societal and practical implications of introducing genome-wide genetic analyses to the clinic will be considered.
The course will host a number of leading national and international speakers who will give lectures on the molecular pathology of a number of cancers, including lung, colorectal, leukaemia, myeloma and others.
