With this comprehensive postgraduate certificate in Genetics, Precision Medicine And COPD you will learn about the genetic links behind this disease and the possible treatments focused on the individual"

Precision Medicine refers to an adjustment in traditional medicine, focusing on the individual characteristics of each patient and not on the globality of the disease they suffer from. This is especially important at the time of establishing a successful treatment to improve a person's condition, since with this methodology other determining factors such as genetic characteristics, biomarkers and other phenotypic characteristics that distinguish each patient can be evaluated.

In this sense, genes play a fundamental role, since it is here that the totality of a person's genetic information is stored, determining his or her physical, psychological and intellectual characteristics. Decoding the genome has allowed health professionals and researchers to know which genes predispose a person to certain pathologies. Being a carrier of some of these changes can become a risk factor, however, thanks to decoding, the professional will be able to recommend the necessary preventive measures to avoid these risks. 

COPD is understood as a complex disease, which has several non-linear factors that can interact together. On the other hand, some approaches indicate that it is heterogeneous, since these factors are not present in all patients or in the same patient all the time.

Based on the above, this postgraduate certificate in Genetics, Precision Medicine And COPD has been designed to study in depth the genetic links of this disease with a special emphasis on alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, describing the phenotypes and personalized treatments that are focused on changing health habits. All this will be achieved by having a teaching staff and their training in this particular area of medicine, accompanying the student at all times and making available their extensive work experience.

 A 100% online program that allows the student to take it comfortably, wherever and whenever he/she wants. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality according to the current times with all the guarantees to position the doctor in a highly demanded sector.
