According to Modell and Kuliev (1998), the history of community genetics as a distinct concept in medicine started in 1981 with WHO in Geneva. This was about the same time that community genetics was introduced in biology for research on interacting populations in a shared environment (Ten Kate et al. 2010). We do not know whether either or both of these early uses can be traced back to even earlier usage
