Milunsky's work on congenital disorders

Milunsky's work focused on understanding genetic causes of congenital disorders—conditions present at birth—that result from inherited genes or mutations. His research helped identify specific genetic patterns and mutations responsible for various physical and developmental abnormalities. By studying families and genetic inheritance, he contributed to better diagnosis, counseling, and potential treatments for congenital conditions. Overall, his work advanced our knowledge of how genes influence health from birth, aiding in early detection and management of genetic disorders.
