Examine how genetics can influence policy issues.
Case Study: Part 3

You will be creating a case study in stages over four course topics. This assignment will add to your previous work in Topic 3. Use an example from your own personal practice, experience, or own personal/family (however, simulated cases are not acceptable for practice hours and therefore not acceptable for this assignment). Examples might include a patient with Duchesne’s muscular dystrophy, Huntington’s disease, Down’s syndrome, sickle-cell anemia, BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 mutations, or another genetic disorder that you or the organization you practice in may specialize in treating.

Directions:

For this assignment (Part 3 of the Case Study), write in about (1,000-1,250 words) incorporating genetics information learned from assigned readings in Topics 1-5. Include the following:

Examine how genetics can influence policy issues.
Discuss any nutritional influences for the cause of this disease.
