Indigenous populations in Mexico: medical anthropology in the work of Ruben Lisker in the 1960s.

Studies in history and philosophy of biological and biomedical sciences - 1 Sept 2014

Suárez-Díaz Edna

Abstract excerpt

Ruben Lisker's research on the genetic hematological traits of Mexican indigenous populations illustrates the intersection of international health policies and the local modernizing nationalism of the Mexican post-revolution period. Lisker's surveys of blood group types, and of G6PD (glucose-6-phosphodehydrogenase) and hemoglobin variants in indigenous populations, incorporated linguistic criteria in the sampling...
