Human disease gene survey yields underlying principles

comparison, and we find the prospect very exciting."

Valle added that insights arising from such comparisons will likely alter the fundamental view of human disease. "In the past, physicians have viewed disease as something that is visited upon us from outside. But the biologically correct perspective is that disease is really a consequence of living. As researchers continue to identify these patterns of disease, we will gain a more global view of the biology of disease as a normal consequence of natural selection and the evolution of our species.

"So, instead of having one group of people, namely physicians, interested in disease and another, namely biologists, interested in evolution and normal biology, we will come to understand that both groups are working on two aspects of the same population. We will probably find that each group will be better served by learning from the other."
