Trosolwg

Yr Athro Gwyneth Davies yw Dirprwy Bennaeth Clinigol (ar y cyd) Ysgol Feddygaeth Prifysgol Abertawe ac mae hi'n arwain Rhaglen Hyfforddiant Ôl-raddedig y DU ar gyfer Ymchwilwyr Asthma (Canolfan Asthma UK ar gyfer Ymchwil Gymhwysol).

Mae diddordebau ymchwil Gwyneth yn cynnwys gwaith trosi ym maes gwyddorau asthma i ymchwil iechyd poblogaethau. Mae ei gwaith presennol yn canolbwyntio ar wybodeg llwybrau anadlu, a chyhoeddiadau effaith uchel sy’n ymwneud â baich a chostau asthma a defnyddio cofnodion iechyd electronig. Gwyneth yw Cyfarwyddwr Sefydlu Arsyllfa Asthma Cymru yn y Banc Data Cysylltu Gwybodaeth Ddienw Ddiogel (SAIL) ac mae'n cydweithredu ar draws y DU ac yn rhyngwladol i holi setiau data a gesglir yn rheolaidd er mwyn archwilio clefyd resbiradol. Y nod yw manteisio ar botensial data mawr i dargedu a gwerthuso ymyriadau er mwyn gwella iechyd resbiradol a lleihau anghydraddoldebau o ran gofal.

Mae cydweithrediadau ar Covid-19 yn cynnwys astudiaeth hydredol genedlaethol a threialon clinigol cenedlaethol COVIDENCE.

Mae'r Athro Davies yn Ymgynghorydd Resbiradol er Anrhydedd ym Mwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Bae Abertawe, lle mae hi'n arwain y gwasanaeth Asthma, yn dilyn hyfforddiant yng Nghymru, Llundain a Seland Newydd.

Dyfarnwyd Gwobr Efydd am Ragoriaeth Glinigol iddi yng Ngwobrau'r Pwyllgor Ymgynghorol ar Ragoriaeth Glinigol (ACCEA), 2019-2024. Dyfarnwyd Cyd-gymrodoriaeth Scadding Morriston Davies mewn Meddygaeth Resbiradol yn y DU iddi ac ymgymerodd â hyn yn Sefydliad y Galon ac Ysgyfaint Cenedlaethol yn Ysbyty Brenhinol Brompton, Llundain.

Mae teulu ifanc gan Gwyneth ac mae gweithio hyblyg wedi ei chefnogi i ddatblygu ei gyrfa gan gydbwyso hyn â bywyd teuluol.

PM-267 Pharmacogenomics: Genes on Drugs

Pharmacogenomics is the study of how a person¿s genomic information can affect their response to drugs and therapeutics, predicting if a patient will respond badly, too much or too little to a chosen therapy. This is the underlying principle of `personalised medicine¿, ensuring the right patient, gets the right drug, at the right time. Within this module, students will look at the principles of pharmacogenomics, namely the variation in genomics sequences from patients to patients which can alter the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of therapeutics. In this module, students will learn about the role of pharmacogenomics in chemotherapy, gastrointestinal drugs, cardiovascular drugs, respiratory drugs, neurological drugs and drugs used in the treatment of infectious disease.
PM-300 Medical Genetics

The course is designed to provide an advanced study of the identification of human genes and the determination of the influence of human genes upon disease and health status. Gene identification provides targets for the development of new pharmaceuticals and the range of variation present in the population.
PM-344 Capstone Project

The aim of this module is to provide a capstone experience to students¿ learning, through participating in their own enquiry-based research project. The project may be laboratory or non-laboratory based, but it will always involve a research question that is drawn from the literature, and focused on a topic relevant to the life sciences. It will ask a novel research question and involve the critical analysis of research findings. Students will refine their oral and written communication skills to a graduate level through creating an introductory presentation on the project background, and a written dissertation and oral presentation on their research conclusions.
