Abstract

This book examines the contribution of the German biologist Herbert Bach (1926 – 1996) to physical anthropology and human genetics in Eastern Germany. It highlights his scientific achievements and publications, his work as director (1960 – 1993) and lecturer at the Institute of Anthropology in Jena (Germany). In order to trace his contributions, this work outlines the previous historical development of the Institute of Anthropology under Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 – 1935) and Bernhard Struck (1936 – 1960). Bach fostered the cooperation between anthropology and genetics by examining anthropological data within a genetic framework. His major accomplishments included the prehistoric anthropology of former populations in central Germany and the implementation of genetic counseling services in Eastern Germany. As director of the Institute of Anthropology, he advanced anthropometrie and prehistoric anthropology and expanded teaching in content and scope. He elaborated new anthropological curricula of biologists, teachers and physicians. In addition Bach re-built the anthropological institute, shifting its focus from ethnology to genetics and expanding the scope of research and teaching. He also integrated the institute into a network of genetic counseling services. Das Buch befasst sich mit dem Beitrag Herbert Bachs (1926 – 1996) zur Anthropologie und Humangenetik. Untersucht wurden seine wissenschaftlichen Leistungen auf diesen Gebieten, seine wissenschaftsorganisatorischen Aktivitäten, vor allem als Institutsdirektor, sein Wirken als Hochschullehrer und sein publizistisches Werk. Ausgehend von seinen Vorgängern im Institutsdirektorat, Hans Friedrich Karl Günther (1930 – 1935) und Bernhard Struck (1936 – 1960) wird der Erneuerung der Anthropologie in Jena nachgegangen. Hierbei zeigte sich, dass Bach immer vom Grundsatz der engen Verflechtung von Anthropologie und Humangenetik, insbesondere von der Möglichkeit der Kausalanalyse anthropologischer Befunde mit Hilfe der Genetik ausging. Innerhalb des Instituts legte er die anthropologischen Schwerpunkte auf die Entwicklungs- und die Prähistorische Anthropologie, während er die Humangenetik auf Weiterentwicklung und Anwendung der Labordiagnostik sowie auf die humangenetische Beratung konzentrierte. Seine persönlichen Arbeitsgebiete waren die Prähistorische Anthropologie sowie die humangenetische Beratung und deren Grundlagen. Die Lehre weitete er sowohl hinsichtlich des Inhalts als auch Adressatenkreises erheblich aus, wobei er sich unter anderem für die Integration anthropologischer und humangenetischer Lehrgebiete in das Medizinstudium engagierte. Als Direktor wandelte Bach das anthropologisch-völkerkundliche Institut in eine moderne anthropologisch-humangenetische Lehr- und Forschungsstätte um und prägte zugleich den Aufbau des humangenetischen Beratungsdienstes der DDR wesentlich.

Abstract

Journal of Medical Genetics is a leading international publication covering original research in human genetics, including reviews of and opinion on the latest developments. Articles cover the genetic basis of human disease including germline cancer genetics, the clinical manifestations of genetic disorders, applications of molecular genetics to medical practice and the systematic evaluation of such applications. Each edition includes original articles, short reports, review articles, hypothesis articles, book reviews, online mutation reports and e-letters where readers are invited to comment on material published in the journal. With Editorial Board members from all around the world (including the US, Canada, Europe, Australasia and the Far East), JMG strives to represent and, more importantly, to participate in the shaping of trends and opinions in human genetics research worldwide.
