The Genetics Division in the Department of Medicine at Brigham & Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School is the home for an intensive research program, which embraces various aspects of modern molecular genetics. The Division's approach is interdisciplinary – with expertise in molecular biology, classical genetics, computational analysis, and gene therapy – in order to study the basic mechanisms of inheritance and analyze the genetic contribution to human diseases. Research interests in the Division varies from the molecular and developmental genetics of model eukaryotic systems (including the mouse Mus musculus and the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster) to the analysis of transcriptional networks, genome analysis, cancer biology, and the development of gene-based therapeutic approaches. For more detailed information on the research projects within the Genetics Division, click here.

In addition to research, the Division is also involved with academics at Harvard Medical School and with a clinical component that provides genetic diagnosis and counseling.

The Division of Genetics is located within the Harvard Medical School New Research Building at 77 Avenue Louis Pasteur, Boston MA 02115. For directions, click here.
