Description/Abstract

In his long and influential career Neel contributed to almost all aspects of genetic epidemiology from mutation to ethical and philosophical issues. His research spanned North America, Japan, Africa, and Latin America in a fascinating equipoise among clinical, biochemical, epidemiological, and molecular studies that have stimulated hundreds of researchers who enjoyed the controversies he generated as much as the insights he provided. Without exception, we treasure recollections of a high-principled and warm-hearted colleague whose field studies were a model for their generation.
