This document discusses genetic disorders that can occur during prenatal development. It notes that genetic disorders are caused by problems in the genetic code and are responsible for one-third of all birth defects. Genetic disorders are grouped into three categories: chromosome number abnormalities, chromosome structure abnormalities, and gene mutations. Some examples of specific genetic disorders are discussed for each category, along with potential causes during prenatal development like maternal diseases, drug use, and teratogens. The document concludes with sections on prevention of genetic disorders and diagnosis of potential issues during prenatal testing.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Prenatal Development
Prenatal or antenatal development is the process in which a human
embryo or fetus gestates during pregnancy, from fertilization until birth.
Genetic disorders during prenatal development:
Genetic disorders are physical defects or illnesses that are caused by
problems in body's genetic code.
Genetic disorders are responsible for one third of all birth defects.
Genetic disorders may be grouped within three groups:
Chromosome number abnormalities
Chromosome structure abnormalities
Gene mutations

9. Causes
Maternal drug use:
aspirin can lead to bleeding
thalidomide caused missing limbs
marijuana restricts oxygen to the fetus
methamphetamine is linked to low birth weight and neurological impairment.
cocaine restricts blood flow and oxygen.
Both alcohol and cigarettes can disrupt the development of the fetus,
FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME (FAS) is a disorder caused by the pregnant mother
consuming substantial quantities of alcohol during pregnancy potentially
resulting in mental retardation, delayed growth, and facial deformities.
