Welcome to the Department of Human Genetics at 平特五不中

The Department of Human Genetics at 平特五不中 was established in 1993. At the time of its creation, our department inherited a varied and thriving program of research and teaching in human genetics that overgrew the boundaries of other traditional departments in the science and medical faculties.

Much of the current research work performed by the faculty members of the Department occurs in laboratories located at 平特五不中-affiliated hospitals, reflecting the understanding that there is much that genetics can contribute to, and learn from, the study of that part of human inheritance and variation presenting as disease.
