内容説明

This special issue of Cytogenetics and Cell Genetics is dedicated to Prof. Dr. P. Meera Khan who died on April 1, 1998. Edited by Drs. Peter Pearson (Utrecht, The Netherlands) and Harold P. Klinger (New York), it contains 14 papers by friends and colleagues of Dr. Khan. Dr. Khan's career spanned many aspects of human genetics, including somatic cell genetics, gene mapping, isoenzyme studies, gene nomenclature and, during the last 15 years, the study of familial colon cancer. Shortly following his death, an international symposium over the impact of molecular genetics on the clinical treatment of colon cancer was held in Leiden. This symposium had originally been scheduled as a farewell for Dr. Khan's retirement, long before it was realised that Dr. Khan was terminally ill. It is fitting that this memorial issue largely comprises articles based on presentations made at the symposium plus others submitted by close friends and colleagues that characterize areas of research in which Dr. Khan was involved.
