The International Genetic Epidemiology
Society (IGES) is concerned with "The study
of genetic components in complex biological phenomena" according
to James V. Neel, the founding President of the
Society. The successful mapping of the human genome
will greatly facilitate the study of health and
disease in a manner that integrates both host and
environmental factors. IGES is devoted to the development
of the methodology to permit such types of studies
and the application of these approaches in human
populations.
