Episode: Professional Education of Genetic Counselors with Guest Robin Grubs, PhD
Description: This episode features Dr. Robin Grubs, Associate Professor of Human Genetics in the University of Pittsburgh’s Graduate School of Public Health. During our conversation, we discuss the nature of genetic counseling and how the field is expanding. We also explore the decision by the genetic counseling profession not to institute a doctorate as the entry-level credential. This decision is quite unlike that made by many health related professions, so we explore how and why they came to this decision.
