Drawing on qualitative expert-interviews, it analyzes how historically situated social imaginaries inform the production of genetic knowledge. The study explores how human genetics constructs heritable disorders as ethnic diseases, exposing the epistemological and ethical tensions inherent in translating sociocultural difference into biological terms.engcc-byhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/East Central Europepopulation geneticspublic healthrace/ethnicityRomaCultural StudiesAnthropologyMusicSDG 3 - Good Health and Well-beingJournal articlehttps://www.scopus.com/pages/publications/105017447759Szamosi, B 2025, 'Medical Geneticists’ Interpretations of Genetic Disorders in Roma Communities in Post-Socialist Hungary', Traditiones, vol. 54, no. 2, pp. 7-28. https://doi.org/10.3986/Traditio2025540201
