CIT can broadcast your seminar, conference or meeting live to a world-wide
audience over the Internet as a real-time streaming video. The event can
be recorded and made available for viewers to watch at their convenience
as an on-demand video or a downloadable podcast. CIT can also broadcast
NIH-only or HHS-only content.
This is a short course targeted at investigators and trainees doing research in human genetics, particularly studies employing genomic analyses of samples from human population. It aims to familiarize researchers studying the human genome with basic principles and potential pitfalls of epidemiology as applied to human genome research. It will draw from traditional genetic epidemiology and statistical genetics, but will emphasize the application of genomic technologies to unrelated subjects in human populations. Focus will be on the design, conduct, analysis, and interpretation of the epidemiologic studies most feasible and appropriate to address the genomic questions of interest.
