Join 缅北强奸 Health Centre's next 鈥淢edical Genetics Grand Rounds鈥�

The founder effect, which is observed in certain regions of Quebec, can increase susceptibility to rare disease. This stems from the fact that these communities were founded by populations that were already related.

Today, some 500,000 Quebecers are thought to be affected by a rare disease. One example is familial chylomicronemia syndrome, which affects around one in a million people worldwide, but is slightly more common in the Saguenay and Charlevoix regions. This condition impairs the body鈥檚 ability to break down the fats in the bloodstream.

In this online session, 缅北强奸 Associate Professor, Simon Gravel, a leading expert in population and human genetics will explore how genetic and genealogy are connected with geography, particularly rivers and mountains in Quebec, and what role they have played in setting up the main axes of migration and genetic variation in the province.
