The Power of Genetic Analysis

Unlocking the Future of Mental Health Treatment

Nearly one-quarter of the adult US population is taking pharmaceutical medication for mood disorder. However, nearly half of those being treated do not respond adequately to such treatment and 86% report at least one adverse side effect.

By integrating genetic insights into the diagnosis and treatment of mental health disorders, we can design highly tailored personalized therapeutic protocols to minimize side effects and maximize outcomes. 

You’ll gain a clear understanding of genes and SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) linked to psychological disorders, practical guidance on how to integrate genetic analysis in a clinical setting, and eal-world case studies illustrating how highly personalized diagnosis and treatment can improve patient outcomes.

All programs include closed captioning.

Live programs include PowerPoint presentation, Q&A with the presenter, and may include interactive polling, video clips, and other resources.

After the live air date, webinars are converted to on-demand programs, which offer the opportunity to earn CE credits by completing a test.
