Course Available in Santiago
GENETIC ENGINEERING
This course takes students on a journey through the revolutionary world of genetics, from the discovery of DNA’s double helix to today’s groundbreaking gene-editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas9. Students will explore how scientists manipulate genetic material to better understand diseases, improve health, and drive innovation across medicine and biotechnology.
Through case studies, bioinformatics exercises, and hands-on lab simulations, students will learn how to analyze genetic data, interpret mutations, and evaluate real-world applications of genetic engineering. The course encourages ethical reflection on the power of genetic modification and its impact on society.
By the end of the program, students will have gained both theoretical and practical knowledge of how genetic research shapes the future of science, health, and humanity.
