    Development of an undergraduate pharmacogenomics curriculum
    Future Medicine Ltd ; 2009
    In:  Pharmacogenomics Vol. 10, No. 12 ( 2009-12), p. 1979-1986

    In: Pharmacogenomics, Future Medicine Ltd, Vol. 10, No. 12 ( 2009-12), p. 1979-1986
    Abstract: Pharmacogenomic biomarkers are becoming increasingly common in medicine and drug development. However, there is a genuine concern that the healthcare workforce will be ill-equipped to translate this information to clinical practice. As a result, a major effort is underway to educate future healthcare professionals on pharmacogenomics. This paper describes the development of a year-long course that aims to instill the fundamental concepts of this rapidly growing field into the minds of undergraduate students. This course offers the advantage of exposing students to the concepts of pharmacogenomics prior to their enrollment in PhD, PharmD or MD/DO graduate programs.

    Engaging the next generation of healthcare professionals in genomics: planning for the future
    Future Medicine Ltd ; 2014
    In:  Personalized Medicine Vol. 11, No. 1 ( 2014-01), p. 89-98

    In: Personalized Medicine, Future Medicine Ltd, Vol. 11, No. 1 ( 2014-01), p. 89-98
    Abstract: There is broad agreement that healthcare professionals require fundamental training in genomics to keep pace with scientific advancement. Strong models that promote effective genomic education, however, are lacking. Furthermore, curricula at many institutions are now straining to adapt to the integration of additional material on next-generation sequencing and the bioethical and legal issues that will accompany clinical genomic testing. This article advocates for core competencies focused on job function, which will best prepare providers to be end-users of healthcare information. In addition, it argues in favor of online and blended learning models that incorporate student genotyping and specific training in the ethical, legal and social issues raised by genomic testing.

    Teaching students in clinical programs about pharmacogenomics: do they understand drug–drug interactions?
    Future Medicine Ltd ; 2018
    In:  Personalized Medicine Vol. 15, No. 5 ( 2018-09), p. 347-350
    Details
    In: Personalized Medicine, Future Medicine Ltd, Vol. 15, No. 5 ( 2018-09), p. 347-350
    Abstract: Teaching the clinical implementation of pharmacogenomics to students in clinical programs first requires careful consideration of their aptitude in basic clinical pharmacologic concepts. Prior to developing training exercises on drug–gene interactions, educators must first assess student competency in identifying and managing drug–drug interactions given the similarities in identifying and managing these sources of medication error.

    Impact of a personal CYP2D6 testing workshop on physician assistant student attitudes toward pharmacogenetics
    Future Medicine Ltd ; 2016
    In:  Pharmacogenomics Vol. 17, No. 4 ( 2016-03), p. 341-352
    Details
    In: Pharmacogenomics, Future Medicine Ltd, Vol. 17, No. 4 ( 2016-03), p. 341-352
    Abstract: Aim: We assessed the impact of personal CYP2D6 testing on physician assistant student competency in, and attitudes toward, pharmacogenetics (PGx). Materials & methods: Buccal samples were genotyped for CYP2D6 polymorphisms. Results were discussed during a 3-h PGx workshop. PGx knowledge was assessed by pre- and post-tests. Focus groups assessed the impact of the workshop on attitudes toward the clinical utility of PGx. Results: Both student knowledge of PGx, and its perceived clinical utility, increased immediately following the workshop. However, exposure to PGx on clinical rotations following the workshop seemed to influence student attitudes toward PGx utility. Conclusion: Personal CYP2D6 testing improves both knowledge and comfort with PGx. Continued exposure to PGx concepts is important for transfer of learning.

    Pharmacogenomics instruction in US and Canadian medical schools: implications for personalized medicine
    Future Medicine Ltd ; 2010
    In:  Pharmacogenomics Vol. 11, No. 9 ( 2010-09), p. 1331-1340
    Details
    In: Pharmacogenomics, Future Medicine Ltd, Vol. 11, No. 9 ( 2010-09), p. 1331-1340
    Abstract: Aims: To determine the extent of pharmacogenomics instruction at US and Canadian medical schools, characterize perceptions of curricular coverage, identify curricular resources and compare responses with similar studies conducted in US pharmacy schools and British medical schools. Materials & methods: A survey was sent to the pharmacology department chairs of US and Canadian medical schools accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education or the American Osteopathic Association’s Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation. Data were collected from July 2009 to February 2010. Results: A total of 56% of eligible medical schools responded (90 out of 160). Of these schools, 82% (74 out of 90) incorporated pharmacogenomics into their curriculum. However, only 28% (21 out of 74) had more than 4 h of the required didactic pharmacogenomic coursework, and only 29% (22 out of 75) were planning to increase the number of pharmacogenomic coursework hours in the next 3 years. Pharmacogenomics coursework was most often contained within a required pharmacology course (66%; 49 out of 74) taught in the second professional year (72%; 53 out of 74). A total of 57% (44 out of 77) considered pharmacogenomics instruction at their own school as ‘poor’ or ‘not at all adequate’ while 76% (54 out of 71) considered it ‘poor’ or ‘not at all adequate’ at most medical schools. Conclusion: Most US and Canadian medical schools have begun to incorporate pharmacogenomics material into their curriculum; however, the extent of instruction is less than that of US pharmacy schools. To adequately prepare physicians to practice in the era of personalized medicine, medical schools should be encouraged to incorporate greater pharmacogenomic material in their curriculum.

    The current and future state of pharmacogenomics medical education in the USA
    Future Medicine Ltd ; 2012
    In:  Pharmacogenomics Vol. 13, No. 12 ( 2012-09), p. 1419-1425
    Details
    In: Pharmacogenomics, Future Medicine Ltd, Vol. 13, No. 12 ( 2012-09), p. 1419-1425
    Abstract: Healthcare professionals (e.g., physicians, physician assistants, pharmacists, nurses and genetic counselors) believe pharmacogenomics (PGx) is essential to personalized medicine; however, they still lack confidence prescribing, dosing, interacting with other healthcare professionals and counseling patients with regard to PGx. This is due to the inadequate incorporation of PGx content into professional curricula. Compared with other health professions, Doctor of Pharmacy programs have integrated more PGx content. Unlike other healthcare professionals, pharmacists have extensive training in pharmacology, drug selection, drug dosage, drug–drug interactions and are uniquely accessible to patients. We suggest pharmacists are the best poised to facilitate incorporating PGx into therapeutic decision-making. Based on our experience as undergraduate and pharmacy PGx educators, we further reflect on our experience educating future healthcare professionals on PGx.
