Abstract

Developments in genomics are profoundly influencing medical practice. With broader use of genetic and genomic testing across every aspect of the health care continuum, patients and their families are increasingly turning to primary care physicians (PCPs) for discussion and advice regarding tests, implications and results. Yet, with the rapid growth of information, technology and applications, PCPs are finding it challenging to fill the gaps in knowledge and support the growing needs of their patients. A critical component in expanding primary care physician genomic literacy lies in the education of physicians in training and in practice. While a framework for developing physician competencies in genomics has already been developed, the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) is uniquely situated to actively utilize the skills of our members to engage and support PCPs in this effort. In this report, we provide an overview and a suggested basic teaching framework, which can be used by molecular professionals in their individual institutions as a starting point for educational outreach.
