Episode Five: Adding Genomics to the MSc & Enhancing Worldwide Genomics Education with New Resources & International Partnerships
Gain advice & free genomics resources from Prof Edward Tobias (the MSc’s Clinical Director) – an academic clinical geneticist & multi-award-winning educator and creator of courses & other online resources.
He enjoys teaching interactively on the MSc, MBChB, BDS, BSc & other courses & at outreach events and has published textbooks & educational resources for health-professionals, students & the public, globally. He created the hands-on genomics course for the MSc & co-created MOOCs and the European professional (ECMGG) exam.
Hear how he overcame difficulties during his own PhD, later helping his research students to win prizes. He now incorporates into his teaching his experience in clinics and research, all whilst teaching his (particularly brave) MSc students how to fly power-kites!
