RESUMO

Many current and upcoming healthcare providers do not feel comfortable ordering or discussing genetic tests and using genetic information in medicine. Nationally, a little over a quarter of medical students indicate that they do not feel prepared to use genetic information in clinical rotations, despite attempts at many schools to remodel the genetics curriculum. This study was conducted at Emory University School of Medicine to identify gaps within the medical curriculum that may contribute to student reports that they feel underprepared to apply genetic knowledge in clinical practice. The analysis included a comprehensive curriculum inventory of genetic content that was then compared to the responses from focus groups of randomly selected second- and fourth-year medical students without a prior genetics degree or background. This joint analysis of precisely what was taught and how it was perceived by students was informative in the development of targeted interventions in our curriculum, and it highlighted the important role of genetic counselors in the education of medical students. Our curriculum has a structure similar to that at many other schools, in which core genetics concepts are concentrated in a brief segment in the first year. We believe our results will be useful for other medical schools to address the perception by medical students that they are underprepared to use genetic information and other basic sciences clinically.
