Master, with this program, the latest methods to analyze MicroRNAs and detect a possible development of a pathology of various kinds"

Epigenetics is a scientific field that, after numerous advances in research, has reached a remarkable development in recent years. In this sense, its current lines of study are focused on its use in cancer as a method to predict the possible growth of the tumor and to optimize the evolution of the oncological patient. Its innumerable advantages in the approach of complex diseases make it possible that the future prospects of this discipline are excellent, offering physicians with high skills in its handling access to prestigious positions in the health care field.

For this reason, TECH has developed this postgraduate certificate, through which the medical professional will significantly enhance their knowledge in the area of Epigenetics to respond with solvency to all the present and future challenges of this scientific branch in continuous growth. Therefore, throughout this academic period, they will identify the MicroRNAs involved in metabolism or those related to the possible development of diseases such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. They will also handle gene variants that generate or destroy binding sites for MicroRNAs, observing exhaustively their results in different human pathologies.

Since this academic program is taught through a 100% online methodology, students will be able to perfectly combine excellent learning with their personal and professional duties. Additionally, this program has been expressly designed by experts who are actively practicing in the field of Nutrirional Genomics, so all the knowledge that they will assimilate will be fully updated.
