The Swedish Society of Medical Genetics and Genomics
The Swedish Society of Medical Genetics and Genomics (SFMG) is an association of people with an interest in genetic questions within medical science. SFMG is open to everyone with a professional connection to medical and clinical genetics – fill in our membership application (in Swedish) if you would like to join. SFMG is the member association for medical genetics and genomics of The Swedish Society of Medicine (Svenska Läkaresällskapet), and also the specialty association for clinical genetics within The Swedish Medical Association.
The purpose of SFMG is to promote the development of medical genetics and genomics by providing expertise in dialogue with the medical profession, authorities and society. The society also arranges scientific lectures as well as discussions and meetings on current issues in medical and clinical genetics. SFMG is a member of The International Federation of Human Genetics Societies (IFHGS), a worldwide organisation for medical and clinical geneticists. The society is also associated with The European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG).
For medical doctors considering working in Sweden, we have a summary in English of the skills descriptions and learning objectives for clinical geneticists as defined by the National Board of Health and Welfare. Read more about the specialty in About Clinical Genetics.
