To evaluate the impact of personal genotyping and a novel educational approach on student attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs regarding pharmacogenomics and genomic medicine. Two online elective courses (pharmacogenomics and genomic medicine) were offered to student pharmacists at the University of Florida using a flipped-classroom, patient-centered teaching approach. In the pharmacogenomics course, students could be genotyped and apply results to patient cases. Thirty-four and 19 student pharmacists completed the pharmacogenomics and genomic medicine courses, respectively, and 100% of eligible students (n=34) underwent genotyping. Student knowledge improved after the courses. Seventy-four percent (n=25) of students reported better understanding of pharmacogenomics based on having undergone genotyping. Completion of a novel pharmacogenomics elective course sequence that incorporated personal genotyping and genomic medicine was associated with increased student pharmacist knowledge and improved clinical confidence with pharmacogenomics.
评估个人基因分型和一种新型教育方法对学生关于药物基因组学和基因组医学的态度、知识及信念的影响。采用翻转课堂、以患者为中心的教学方法,为佛罗里达大学的药学专业学生提供了两门在线选修课程(药物基因组学和基因组医学)。在药物基因组学课程中,学生能够进行基因分型并将结果应用于患者案例。分别有34名和19名药学专业学生完成了药物基因组学和基因组医学课程,100%符合条件的学生(n = 34)进行了基因分型。课程结束后,学生的知识水平有所提高。74%(n = 25)的学生表示,基于进行了基因分型,对药物基因组学有了更好的理解。完成一门纳入个人基因分型和基因组医学的新型药物基因组学选修课程序列,与药学专业学生知识的增加以及对药物基因组学临床信心的提高相关。
