"Genetic Education for Native Americans" (GENA) Did you know that: There are no Native American genetic counselors in the U.S. and only a handful (less than four) Native American genetic researchers in the Country? Native American Nations have genetic-related practices that predate pre-Columbian contact? Native Americans may have some type of protective biomarker that helps prevent many types of cancer? Native American communities have significant concerns which need to be addressed in a culturally respectful and competent manner before genetic research is introduced to a community? Most Tribal Centers, Clinics, and Councils have Institutional Review Boards (IRB) which need to approve a genetic research project prior to implementation within a Native community? "Genetic Education for Native Americans," (GENA) is a project funded October 1, 1998 to Denver Indian Center by the Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The primary goal of this three-year project is to provide culturally competent education about genetics and genetic research to Native American college and university students. The secondary goal is to increase the number of Native people who have access to scientific mentoring experiences in genetic counseling, education, research and other opportunities or careers. The GENA project will implement and compare two variations of a newly designed culturally relevant genetic education program, GENA (Genetic Education for Native Americans), and provide mentoring opportunities to Native American students who are interested in genetic education, research and medicine.

"Your degree in Genetics...what next?" Please note - some of the information on this page is now out of date. It has been replaced by a new version on the Genetics Department website. Undoubtedly, the best place to check, if you are looking to review the opportunities available in both employment and further study is: Prospects.ac.uk Introduction This page aims to begin to answer the question "What can I do with my degree ?" You should read it alongside the AGCAS Information Booklet Your Degree ....What Next ? which looks in more detail at career planning and graduate employment. At the bottom of this page are a number of links to other sites that might offer additional advice or information. Many of these are US based, so please check with a careers adviser as the situation in the UK may be different. In 1996 approximately 40% of genetics graduates went on to study for a higher degree, while almost half found employment. Of these, about half went into scientific work, which is of course the most direct way of using your degree Choosing a career involves more than just finding out about what is open to you as a graduate in genetics. Knowledge about yourself is central to the process. It is valuable to start by looking at your individual values, interests, motivations, abilities and skills in order to relate career options to you. Don't be intimidated by the idea of self assessment - the

The Science of Genetics Training and Careers in the Genetics Field Geneticists in Basic Research: Laboratory Geneticists: Application of modern genetic technology to agriculture, legal or police work, pharmaceutical development, and clinical medicine requires the services of sophisticated laboratories. These laboratories are staffed by scientists trained in molecular biology, cytogenetics, biochemical genetics, immunogenetics, and related disciplines. Genetic laboratory directors usually hold Ph.D. degrees or M.D. degrees with specialization in laboratory medicine. Most genetic laboratory technologists have four to six years of university education. Some genetic laboratories require their staff to have specific training and certification in cytogenetic or medical technology. Other genetic laboratories hire people with any relevant B.S. or M.S. degree as long as they can show an aptitude for the kind of work that is being done. The career of a laboratory geneticist offers the opportunity to apply genetics "hands on" to a variety of important problems. Genetic Counselors: Clinical Geneticists: Clinical geneticists are usually individuals who have an M.D. degree. Therefore, undergraduates would need to satisfy the requirements for medical school admission. A major in the biological or physical sciences may be desirable, although not necessary, provided the admission requirements are fulfilled. After medical school, a residency in pediatrics, obstetrics-gynecology, or internal medicine should be completed, followed by a fellowship in clinical genetics. Currently, most residency programs are three to five years; fellowships are an additional two or three years. Individuals would then be qualified for positions in research centers, hospitals or medical centers.
