An excellent source of methodological and applied genetic research


Aims and Scope

Gathering original research reports and short communications from all over the world, 'Human Heredity' is devoted to methodological and applied research on the genetics of human populations, association and linkage analysis, genetic mechanisms of disease, and new methods in statistical genetics. The value of this information to many branches of medicine is shown by the number of citations the journal receives in fields ranging from immunology and hematology to epidemiology and public health planning, and the fact that at least 50% of all 'Human Heredity' papers are still cited more than 8 years after publication (according to ISI Journal Citation Reports).

Published online first

All articles are published electronically ahead of print with the definite citation line. Thus, an article will be available online shortly after the author's approval to print.
