Professional Master's Degree in Nutritional Genomics and Precision Nutrition for Nursing

.

Bearing in mind that prevention in the area of medicine is still a current objective, especially in diseases that make up a worldwide public health problem, as is the case of obesity, it is necessary to resort to the analysis and use of new theoretical and conceptual tools to achieve this objective. An example of such tools is nutritional genomics, oriented to the modification of cellular metabolism, through the analysis of the relationship between genes and human nutrition. To specialize in this recent field of study, TECH Technological University has created a master's degree that will allow nursing professionals to acquire knowledge in human population genetics, through the analysis of the precursor studies in this field. It will also enable them to apply the concepts and trends of this discipline to the personalized prescription of nutritional habits, following the genetic polymorphisms of each patient. In addition, thanks to the theoretical background offered by the curriculum, they will be able to design experimental studies that contribute to the development of this branch of nutrition.
