In this talk I will speak about neurogenetics and its methods.
Neurogenetics combines bioinformatics with functional and
clinical work as a means of discovery of new mechanisms in
human neurological conditions.
Genetic methods are increasingly used in diagnosis and
treatment. The aim of the talk is to raise interest and
awareness of the complex relationships in human genetics,
pitfalls and challenges of handling the millions of data points
involved in genetic studies of diseases and the complexity of
validation of such results in patients.
