Abstract
HUMAN genetics was well represented at the Congress. Abstracts of a large number of papers were prepared, but like other sections their presentation was somewhat deranged by the approach of war. At different sessions the section discussed such topics as mental inheritance, feeble-mindedness, blood groups, statistical methods in human genetics, selection in human populations, twinning, normal and abnormal human characters.
