Description

Human genetics provides a theoretical framework for understanding the biology of the human species. It is a rapidly growing branch of science. New insights into the biochemical basis of heredity and the development of human cytogenetics in the 1950s heightened interest in this fi eld. The number of research workers and clinicians who defi ne themselves as full-time or part-time human and medical geneticists has increased sharply, and detailed well-founded knowledge has augmented exponentially. Many scientists and physicians are confronted with genetic problems and use concepts and methodology ofhuman genetics in research and diagnosis. Methods developed in many different fi elds of the biologic, chemical, medical, and statistical sciences are being utilized toward the solution of genetic problems. The increasing number and sophistication of well-defi ned and elegantly solved problems helps to refi ne an extensive framework of genetic theory. These new conceptual insights in their turn lead to solutions of new questions. To mention only one example, the structure of hemoglobin genes has been elucidated using methods derived from protein chemistry and DNA technology. It is an exciting experience to participate in these developments!
