| The ABMG-training programs are coordinated from within the Center for Molecular Medicine and Genetics. The programs offer a wide range of opportunities designed to reflect the residents/fellows specific interests. Integral departments participating in the training include Obstretrics/Gynecology, Pediatrics, Karmanos Cancer Institute, Neurology, Center for Molecular Medicine and Genetics and Pathology. Clinical and basic science research opportunties are available in all of the above departments as well as others, as are opportunites to specialize in one or more areas. On-site biochemical, molecular and cytogenetics laboratories provide diagnostic laboratory training. Specific research areas include familial aneurysms, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and other demyelinating disorders, gene therapy, mitochondrial genetics, preimplantation genetics, and hereditary cancers. Specialty clinics include Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, hemophilia, and metabolism. | |
