Virtual Event for Genetic Counseling

The Iowa Institute of Human Genetics is hosting an informational event on the Future of Personalized Genomic Medicine: Applying to Genetic Counseling Graduate Programs. During this virtual event, a panel of genetic counselors will speak about their experience applying to genetic counseling training programs, their daily activities, as well as their role in personalized genomic medicine. Several genetic counselors from across the state of Iowa will be participating in the event. This opportunity is a great way for students to discuss first-hand the application process, job growth and ask questions in a small group setting. All undergraduate students interested in learning more about applying to genetic counseling graduate programs are invited to attend.

The event will be held from 1:00 to 4:oo PM Central on Friday, August 9th. Zoom information will be provided to registrants prior to the event. Visit the website to view the agenda and register.
