to North American Graduate and Postgraduate Training
Programs in Human Genetics and this guide is available on
their website. This invaluable guide was compiled by the
Information and Education Committee of the ASHG, primarily
as an aid to the undergraduate students, graduate students,
and house officers who are contemplating careers in human
genetics. As its name implies, the Guide deals with programs
in the United States and Canada that offer graduate and
postgraduate training specifically designed to prepare
individuals for careers in human genetics. This Guide also
indicates programs that are accredited by the American Board
of Medical Genetics (ABMG). Also included are program
director's names, addresses and phone numbers to assist you
in making contact. Programs that offer courses in human
genetics as part of curricular in medicine, dentistry,
nursing, social work, medical technology, or other
disciplines are not included.
