Case Reports
Development, Implementation, and Assessment of a Genetics Curriculum Across Institutions.
Objective Many residency programs offer limited exposure and minimal didactic time genetics, despite its frequent use in obstetrics and gynecology. The objective of this study was to develop, pilot, and assess a three-module women's health genetics curriculum for residents that was easily transferable between institutions. Methods An interactive three-module genetics curriculum covering basic principles, prenatal screening/diagnosis, and cancer genetics was developed. ⋯ However, 8/13 scored > 70% on the posttest (p = 0.002). Instructors at both institutions described the curriculum as easy to use/implement. Conclusion This three-module workshop on women's health genetics was easily implemented across institutions and led to increased knowledge.
