Relevant learning outcomes
| # | Outcome |
|---|---|
| # 4 | Outcome Compare major bioinformatics resources or pathogen typing and identification for clinical diagnostics and how their results can be summarised and integrated with other lines of evidence to produce clinically valid reports. |
| # 5 | Outcome Interpret evidence from bioinformatic tools and resources and integrate this into the sum of genetic information for the interpretation and reporting of test results from patients. |
| # 6 | Outcome Perform the recording of building or version numbers of resources used on a given date, including those of linked data sources, and understand the clinical relevance of this data. |
