Psychiatry and Genetics are known to have an increasingly tighter bond with each other, which drives professionals the need to stay focused and updated. We use case studies as the means to link theoretical concepts with daily work. By doing so, we hope to provide psychiatrists some of the most necessary tools that will help them identify the need to consult a Genetic Counselor while treating a patient. This will certainly help diagnose patients and offer them the adequate treatment, whenever applicable. Patients and their families will also benefit from the possibility of receiving the appropriate counseling.
精神病学与遗传学之间的联系日益紧密，这促使专业人士需要保持专注并与时俱进。我们以案例研究作为将理论概念与日常工作联系起来的手段。通过这样做，我们希望为精神科医生提供一些最必要的工具，帮助他们在治疗患者时确定咨询遗传咨询师的必要性。这肯定有助于诊断患者，并在适用时为他们提供适当的治疗。患者及其家属也将受益于获得适当咨询的可能性。
