[***] ASHG Report Medical School Core Curriculum in Genetics
Am. J. Hum. Genet. 56:535, 1995 … Preamble … Medical genetics is one of the most rapidly advancing fields of medicine; molecular genetics is now integral to all aspects of biomedical science. Every physician who practices in the 21st century will require a basic knowledge of the principles of human genetics and their application to a wide variety of clinical problems. The American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) has developed this Medical School Core Curriculum to provide guidance to deans and curriculum committees regarding knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to medical genetics that are likely to be needed by all current medical students during their careers as physicians. We recognize that medical school curricula differ substantially throughout North America and that many schools are reevaluating and revising their approaches to medical education. Each school must find the best way to incorporate teaching in medical genetics into its own curriculum, but some generalizations are possible:

• Medical genetics is both a basic biomedical science and a clinical specialty; it is insufficient to teach it as either alone. Teaching in medical genetics must span the entire undergraduate medical school curriculum and must continue into the postgraduate years as well.
• Medical genetics must be explicitly included in the curriculum. Although some aspects of medical genetics overlap with and may be taught by other disciplines, students are unlikely to learn what they need unless specific learning objectives in medical genetics are established for them. This is especially true of issues that lie at the heart of medical genetics, such as the importance of disease prediction and prevention, the appropriate application of novel scientific discoveries to clinical care, and the nondirective approach to counseling.
• A person or committee should be given specific responsibility for the curriculum in medical genetics at each medical school. This responsibility should extend throughout the entire undergraduate curriculum and should include involvement in all courses that contain (or that should contain) material related to medical genetics.
• Medical genetics can be taught effectively by a variety of different methods and in various formats. Problem-based learning is particularly well suited to medical genetics, which involves the integration of skills and knowledge from many different fields.

• Identify all the more than 100,000 genes in human DNA,
• Determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA,
• Store this information in databases,
• Develop tools for data analysis, and
• Address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) that may arise from the project.
