Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Mutations Course
Master the molecular genetics of cystic fibrosis from CFTR protein biology to cutting-edge modulator therapies. This course gives clinicians, genetic counsellors, and researchers the tools to interpret mutations, apply diagnostic methods, and connect genotype data to patient care decisions. Build the specialised expertise that modern CF practice demands.

What will I learn?
This course covers the full spectrum of CFTR mutation science, starting with protein structure and disease pathophysiology and advancing through the six functional mutation classes, standardised variant nomenclature, and major CF databases. You will learn how molecular diagnostic methods work, how newborn screening programmes are designed, and how genotype data predicts clinical outcomes across organ systems. The course then connects mutation class knowledge directly to approved CFTR modulator therapies and eligibility criteria. Supplementary content addresses genetic counselling, bioinformatics tools, registry data analysis, and the ethical dimensions of CF genetic testing.
