More About the Course

 

Objectives:

  • To assist attendees in preparing for the MGP Subspecialty Certification Exam (offered jointly by the American Board of Pathology and the American Board of Medical Genetics), as well as other certification exams in molecular pathology and molecular genetics, and
     
  • To enhance understanding of basic and applied molecular pathology knowledge of both fundamental and applied molecular pathology, including the use of commonly employed assays, as well as the molecular mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment.

Participants should also be able to discuss the current molecular approaches to the diagnosis and prognosis of inherited diseases (including pharmacogenetics), molecular hematopathology, cytogenetics, solid and soft tissue tumors, molecular genetic testing of infectious diseases (including bacterial, fungal, viral, and parasitic pathogens), and DNA identity tests.

 

Topics:

  • Molecular Technologies and Lab Methods 
  • NGS Platforms and Informatics 
  • Test Validation, Statistics, and Bayes’ Theorem 
  • Variant interpretation
  • Identity Testing 
  • HLA Transplant Testing 
  • Cytogenetics 
  • Inherited Conditions 
  • Molecular Oncology 
  • Pharmacogenomics 
  • Molecular Hematopathology 
  • Infectious Diseases 
  • Lab Management and Lab Finances 

 

Audience:

Pathologists, geneticists, clinical laboratory directors, molecular pathology laboratory personnel, and trainees who are:

  1. preparing for relevant certification exams including but not limited MGP, LGG, ABCC, or ABB exams*
  2. seeking institutional credentialing
  3. seeking a refresher in molecular pathology core concepts
