A complete introductory text on how to integrate basic genetic principles into the practice of clinical medicine Medical Genetics is the first text to focus on the everyday application of genetic assessment and its diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive implications in clinical practice. It is intended to be a text that you can use throughout medical school and refer back to when questions arise during residency and, eventually, practice. Medical Genetics is written as a narrative where each chapter builds upon the foundation laid by previous ones. Chapters can also be used as stand-alone learning aids for specific topics. Taken as a whole, this timely book delivers a complete overview of genetics in medicine. You will find in-depth, expert coverage of such key topics as: The structure and function of genes Cytogenetics Mendelian inheritance Mutations Genetic testing and screening Genetic therapies Disorders of organelles Key genetic diseases, disorders, and syndromes Each chapter of Medical Genetics is logically organized into three sections: Background and Systems – Includes the basic genetic principles needed to understand the medical application Medical Genetics – Contains all the pertinent information necessary to build a strong knowledge base for being successful on every step of the USMLE Case Study Application – Incorporates case study examples to illustrate how basic principles apply to real-world patent care Today, with every component of health care delivery requiring a working knowledge of core genetic principles, Medical Genetics is a true must-read for every clinician.

For decades, Emery and Rimoin's Principles and Practice of Medical Genetics and Genomics has served as the ultimate resource for clinicians integrating genetics and genomics into medical practice. With detailed coverage in contributions from more than 250 of the world's most trusted authorities in medical genetics and a series of 11 volumes available for individual sale, the Seventh Edition of this classic reference includes the latest information on seminal topics such as prenatal diagnosis, genome sequencing, public health genetics, genetic counseling, and management and treatment strategies to complete its coverage of this growing field for students, health providers, and researchers involved in the care of patients with genetic conditions, and increasingly, all areas of health and disease. This comprehensive yet practical resource emphasizes theory and research fundamentals related to the applications of medical genetics and genomics across the full spectrum of inherited disorders and applications to medicine more broadly. In this volume, leading physicians and researchers thoroughly examine medical genetics and genomics as applied to developmental disorders, as well as genetic conditions that affect hearing and vision. Here genetic researchers, students, and health professionals will find new and fully revised chapters on human developmental genetics, disorders affecting craniofacial development, chromosomal abnormalities, including aneuploidies and structural abnormalities, hereditary hearing impairment, and various genetic conditions of the eye. With regular advances in genomic technologies propelling precision medicine into the clinic, Emery and Rimoin's Principles and Practice of Medical Genetics and Genomics, Seventh Edition bridges the gap between high-level molecular genetics and practical application and serves as an invaluable clinical tool for health professionals and researchers. · Thoroughly introduces genetic researchers, students, and healthcare professionals to the principles of human developmental genetics · Examines a wide range of developmental disorders, including craniofacial development as well as disorders affecting hearing and vision · Includes color images supporting identification, concept illustration, and method processing · Features contributions by leading international researchers and practitioners of medical genetics
