Join a cohesive and highly interactive community of investigators with research programs in diverse areas of genetics.
The Department of Human Genetics is devoted to advancing the fields of genetics and genomics to further our understanding of biology and human disease.
We explore broad areas of genetic research including—but not limited to—genome structure and function, evolutionary and population genetics, developmental genetics, the molecular basis of Mendelian disease, the etiology of complex traits and diseases, and how to effectively interpret and communicate genetic information to improve care in diverse patient populations.
We invite you to explore our inclusive community through our educational programs, groundbreaking research, and diverse events.
