Students will come to understand that the best-known monogenic disorders are Cystic Fibrosis, Muscular Dystrophy and Fragile X Syndrome . They will discover that Cystic Fibrosis is a single cell disorder that is the result of a mutation in the CFTR gene, Muscular Dystrophies are a group of single cell genetic disorders characterized by muscle weakness and loss of muscle tissue and that Fragile X syndrome is a single gene disorder that results in intellectual disabilities including learning disabilities and cognitive impairment. The program discusses the fact that even though genetic disorders are rare from an epidemiological standpoint, they can be devastating to the people who are affected.\n
