title: Comparative genetic mapping for the identification of novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets.
abstract: The past year has seen significant advances in the genetic mapping of human and mouse genomes, with the publication of the most detailed and informative genetic maps compiled to date. These maps, together with those for several other species, provide a wealth of information for comparative mapping, with a view to identifying new human disease genes.
