4th World Congress on Human Genetics and Genetics diseases

About Conference:


Human Genetics Meet 2018 invites all the participants from all over the world to attend 4th World Congress on Human Genetics and Genetic Diseases during April 19-20, 2018, Dubai, UAE which includes prompt keynote presentations, Oral talks, Poster presentations and Exhibitions


Human genetics is the field of biology and genetics that studies the structure and function of genes at a molecular level. The study of chromosomes and gene expression of an organism can give insight into heredity, genetic variation, and mutations. This is useful in the study of developmental biology and in understanding and treating genetic diseases. Gene therapy is the therapeutic delivery of nucleic acid polymers into a patient's cells as a drug to treat disease.


Why to attend???

This unique international conference provides a platform for researchers and decision makers in Human Genetics and Genetic Diseases to present their latest findings and learn about all the important developments in Human Genetics and Genetic Diseases. Many scientists and world's renowned experts will participate in the conference. Throughout the course of the Three days conference, you will have the opportunity to both network and hear leaders from the international academic and corporate Human Genetics and Genetic Diseases communities. This conference seek to bring all such scientist, Noble Laureate, researcher, research scholar, students and people together who are involved in this field and provide them to discuss about their innovation, exchange ideas and interaction with each other.

Sessions/Tracks

Track 1: Human Genetics


Human genetics study is of inheritance as it occurs in human beings. Human genetics encompasses varieties of overlapping fields including, genomics, cytogenetics, molecular genetics, classical genetics, biochemical genetics, population genetics, developmental genetics, clinical genetics, and genetic counseling. Genes can be the common factor of the qualities of most human-inherited traits.


Track 2:Genetic Diseases

Genetic diseases may be hereditary, passed down from the parents genes. In other genetic diseases, defects may be caused by new mutations or changes to the DNA. In that case, the defect will only be passed down if it occurs in the germ line. The same disease such as some forms of cancer may be caused by an inherited genetic condition in some people, by new Hereditary mutations in other people, and mainly by the environmental causes in other people. A genetic disease is a genetic problem caused by one or more abnormalities in the genome, especially a condition that is present from birth congenital. Most genetic diseases are quite rare and affect one person in every several thousands or millions.

Track 3: Evolutionary genetics

Evolutionary genetics is the broad field of studies that resulted from the integration of genetics and Darwinian evolution, called the modern synthesis. The force of mutation is the ultimate source of new genetic variation within populations. Although most mutations are neutral with no effect on fitness or harmful, some mutations have a small, positive effect on fitness and these variants are raw materials for gradualist adaptive evolution. Within finite populations, random genetic drift and natural selection affect the mutational variation. Natural selection is the only evolutionary force which can produce adaptation, the fit between organism and environment, or conserve genetic states over very long periods of time in the face of the dispersive forces of mutation and drift.

Track 4: Molecular Biology

Molecular biology is the study of molecular underpinnings of the processes of replication, transcription, translation, and cell function. Molecular biology concerns the molecular basis of biological activity between the biomolecules in various systems of a cell, gene sequencing and this includes the interactions between the DNA, RNA and proteins and their biosynthesis. In molecular biology the researchers use specific techniques native to molecular biology, increasingly combine these techniques and ideas from the genetics and biochemistry.

Track 5: Gene Mutation

In biology, a mutation is the permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extra chromosomal DNA or other genetic elements. Mutations result from errors during DNA replication or other types of damage to DNA, which then may undergo error-prone repair or cause an error during other forms of repair, or else may cause an error during replication translation synthesis. Mutations may also result from insertion or deletion of segments of DNA due to mobile genetic elements. Mutations may or may not produce discernible changes in the observable characteristics phenotype of an organism. Mutations play a part in both normal and abnormal biological processes including: evolution, cancer, and the development of the immune system, including functional diversity. The genomes of RNA viruses are based on RNA rather than DNA. The RNA viral genome can be double stranded DNA or single stranded. In some of these viruses such as the single stranded human immunodeficiency virus replication occurs quickly and there are no mechanisms to check the genome for accuracy.
