Human Genetics (HG)

Human Genetics is a long‑standing, peer‑reviewed international scientific journal dedicated to advancing research in human genetics, genomics, and genetic epidemiology. First published in 1964 (originally under the German title Humangenetik before adopting its current name), the journal covers foundational and translational studies on genetic variation, gene mapping, hereditary disorders, genotype‑phenotype relationships, and the molecular basis of disease in humans. It provides a forum for rigorous empirical research, methodological innovation, and theoretical insights that span classical human genetics, population genetics, genetic epidemiology, cancer genetics, and emerging work in genomic technologies. The scope embraces both clinical and laboratory‑based investigations that illuminate mechanisms of inheritance, genetic susceptibility to disease, functional genomics, and the implications of genetic findings for medicine and public health. Human Genetics also publishes reviews and perspectives that synthesize developments in the field and address ethical, social, and legal aspects of genetic research. Indexed in major databases including Science Citation Index Expanded and Scopus, the journal serves geneticists, molecular biologists, clinicians, and interdisciplinary researchers worldwide with contributions that deepen understanding of human biology and inform therapeutic and diagnostic strategies. Its hybrid open access model allows authors to publish nondisabled or open access articles.
