The workshop, which was sponsored by the Public Health Genetics Unit, Cambridge UK and CDC's Office of Genomics and Disease Prevention, was held at Robinson College in Cambridge, UK on July 7-9, 2002. The opening remarks were prepared as an introduction to the HuGE course but actually provide an overview and introduction to the whole field of human genome epidemiology (HuGE), which translates gene discoveries to disease prevention by integrating population-based data on gene-disease relationships with the development of interventions.
