You will be given real world case studies of genetic diseases that impact Indigenous Australians such as Machado Joseph Disease (MJD) and the mitochondrial disorder MELAS. You will be given specific examples where racial stereotyping and lack of Indigenous genomic reference sequence has delayed diagnosis of a genetic disease. This is an introductory unit and the knowledge and skills developed in this unit are relevant to core diagnostic genomic units and electives.
