Master, with this program, the techniques to identify those SNPs linked to the development of different food intolerances in order to optimize their prevention"

Single nucleotide polymorphisms are an excellent indicator to facilitate the localization of genes associated with different types of diseases. Their benefits in this field have led to the development of research studies aimed at analyzing the possible relationship between SNPs and the development of complex pathologies such as those of cardiac origin, diabetes or cancer. Therefore, its validity, its constant evolution and its usefulness to detect the predisposition to suffer from other diseases of a milder nature mean that doctors must have extensive skills in these particularities of DNA to be at the forefront of the world of medicine.

In view of this circumstance, TECH has promoted the creation of this Postgraduate certificate, with which students will expand their knowledge in the identification of SNPs related to different diseases, vitamin deficiencies or food intolerances. During 6 weeks of intensive learning, students will analyze the single nucleotide polymorphisms linked to the development of addictions to alcohol or caffeine, or to lactose or fructose intolerances. Additionally, it will detect how these SNPs have a direct impact on the sports performance of each person or on the recovery and prevention of injuries.

Thanks to the 100% online methodology in which this program is taught, the student will be able to ideally combine their personal and professional obligations with an exquisite learning experience. Likewise, the didactic contents to which they will have access are designed and elaborated by excellent professionals in the area of Genomic Nutrition, so that the knowledge acquired will be completely applicable in their work experience.

The Postgraduate certificate in Nutrigenetics: Key Polymorphisms will provide you with the necessary tools to detect how SNPs can influence the sports performance of each person"

The program includes in its teaching staff professionals of the field who pour into this training the experience of their work, in addition to recognized specialists from reference societies and prestigious universities.

Its multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will allow the professional a situated and contextual learning, that is, a simulated environment that will provide an immersive training programmed to train in real situations.

The design of this program focuses on Problem-Based Learning, in which the professional will have to try to solve the different professional practice situations that will arise throughout the academic course. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

Enjoy excellent learning through didactic content presented in innovative formats such as interactive summary or explanatory video"

Through this program, you will analyze the single nucleotide polymorphisms that are linked to the development of addictions to alcohol or caffeine"

The syllabus of this program consists of 1 module through which the physician will increase their knowledge of the single nucleotide polymorphisms that lead to the development of various diseases or food intolerances. The didactic resources available to the student throughout this program are present in a wide range of varied textual and multimedia formats. Thanks to this, and with a 100% online methodology, students will acquire a resolute learning process that is adapted to their academic and personal needs.

Learn at your own pace and without having to limit yourself to pre-established learning times thanks to the Relearning system offered by this Postgraduate certificate"
