About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're talking with Dr. Sofia Patel, an expert in sleep disorders and genetics. She's here to discuss her new course, the "Advanced Certificate in Parasomnia Genetics." Dr. Patel, can you tell us what inspired you to create this course? GUEST: Absolutely, I've seen a growing interest in the genetic factors of sleep disorders among healthcare professionals, and I wanted to provide a comprehensive program that covers both theory and practical applications. HOST: That sounds fascinating. How does understanding genetics help in treating parasomnias? GUEST: Genetic insights can lead to more personalized treatment plans, early intervention, and potentially even prevention strategies. It's a game-changer for the field. HOST: Incredible. Now, what are some challenges faced when studying the genetic aspects of parasomnias? GUEST: One major challenge is the complexity of genetic interactions and the need for multidisciplinary collaboration. We're also working with sensitive patient data, so ethical considerations are crucial. HOST: Those are important points. Looking toward the future, where do you see this area of study heading? GUEST: I believe we'll continue to uncover new genetic links to various sleep disorders, which will open up even more opportunities for targeted treatments and improved patient care. HOST: Dr. Patel, thank you so much for joining us today and sharing your insights on the "Advanced Certificate in Parasomnia Genetics." We're excited to see the impact this course will have on the industry. GUEST: Thank you for having me. It's been a pleasure discussing this important topic with you.
