Heredity, either alone or in combination with environmental factors, is the most prominent underlying cause of hearing impairment. Thanks in large part to positional cloning techniques, scientists have identified nearly 100 gene loci implicated in hearing loss since 1995-an extraordinarily rapid rate of gene identification. Genetic Hearing Loss
Patrick J. Willems is a former professor of medical genetics at the University of Antwerp, Belgium. He currently is Director of GENDIA, Antwerp, Belgium, a network of laboratories offering genetic testing. He has published over 200 articles in internationally distinguished journals including Cell, Nature Genetics and The New England Journal of Medicine, with many on genetic hearing loss. Dr. Willems received the M.D. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Antwerp, Belgium.
