Dr. Vincent Henrich is Professor Emeritus of Biology and former Director of the Center for Biotechnology, Genomics, and Health Research at University of North Carolina at Greensboro. His research interests include gene-environment interactions affecting conditions and nuclear receptor biology. Additionally, he has conducted extensive research related to the connection between family health history and genomic and genetic diagnostics, as a basis for assessing an individual's vulnerability to serious medical conditions and diseases. Dr. Henrich and Dr. Lori Orlando collaborate on the Guilford Genomic Medicine Initiative, a project funded by the Department of Defense to implement family health history usage and appropriate genetic testing into primary care settings. His main responsibility for this project is overseeing genetic counseling and education programs for physicians and patients. See less
