We are grateful to the editors of Genome Medicine who have rather incautiously invited us to write a monthly commentary on the exciting events that have occurred in this burgeoning field. We have decided to write the column together because one of us (DGN) is a clinical investigator and the other (SHO) is a basic geneticist and developmental biologist. Together we believe we can do justice to the field and eschew cant. We begin with a discussion of the controversial role of genome wide association studies in clinical medicine.
