Summary

Lecture Notes: Medical Genetics provides a concise and straightforward introduction to medical genetics. The text aims to give students a fundamental understanding of the science of genetics and molecular medicine and a knowledge of the core clinical conditions caused by genetic abnormalities. Previously titled Lecture Notes on Molecular Medicine, this new edition has a greater focus on clinical genetics while continuing to provide core information on the scientific background and advances in genetics and molecular medicine. Thoroughly revised and updated, Lecture Notes: Medical Genetics is an invaluable primer for any science student new to molecular biology and genetics, and an excellent resource for medical students, junior doctors and practicing clinicians requiring an understanding of scientific advances in the field and their impact on clinical medicine.
