ERN GENTURIS e-Training Programme

Webinars

As part of the ERN GENTURIS e-training programme, each of our webinars provides either a general overview of a genturis-related topic or an in-depth look at one of the genturis diseases from a specific healthcare perspective. An important goal of our webinar series is to cover each genturis from several perspectives in order to create a comprehensive overview of the currently available knowledge for every genturis.

All our webinars include at least one speaker that is a member of ERN GENTURIS. The target audience for the webinars consists of clinicians, genetic counsellors, clinical scientists and other genetics health professionals. The webinars last approximately 30-40 minutes, and viewers have the opportunity to send questions on the subject area which will be addressed in a question & answer session afterwards. Webinars are usually held on Wednesday afternoons.
