The Primer on Medical and Population Genetics is a series of informal weekly discussions of basic genetics topics that relate to human populations and diseases. Experts from across the Broad Institute community give in-depth introductions to the basic principles of complex trait genetics, including human genetic variation, genotyping, DNA sequencing methods, statistics, data analysis, and more.

Videos of these sessions are made freely available for viewing here. They are geared toward a wide audience that includes research technicians, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and established investigators just entering the field.
