Margaret Pericak-Vance: a force of nature in human genetics
Margaret Pericak-Vance: a force of nature in human genetics
Human genetics is a scientific endeavour about people; a story of inheritance that brings history, biology, and sociology together, into one field. “I love hearing about my family, and this was an impetus to get involved in genetics”, explains human geneticist and genetic epidemiologist Margaret Pericak-Vance (University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL, USA). Pericak-Vance's heritage is important to her. She has roots in a small Italian town in the middle of Sicily—Mussomeli, “a train ride from Corleone, from the Godfather [films]”.
