The McGill Group in Medical Genetics was formed in 1972, supported by the Medical Research Council and successor Canadian Institutes for Health Research until September 2009, making it the longest active biomedical research group in the history of Canada. We document the history of the McGill Group and situate its research within a broader history of medical genetics. Drawing on original oral histories with the Group's members, surviving documents, and archival materials, we explore how the Group's development was structured around epistemological trends in medical genetics, policy choices made by research agencies, and the development of genetics at McGill University and its hospitals. Le groupe de médecine génétique de McGill, créé en 1972, a reçu l'appui du Conseil de recherches médicales du anada puis des Instituts de recherche en santé du Canada jusque septembre 009. Cela en fait le groupe de recherche biomédicale le plus longtemps actif ans l'histoire canadienne. Nous présentons l'évolution de ce groupe en situant es travaux dans le cadre plus large de l'histoire de la médecine génétique. À 'aide d'entrevues avec les membres du groupe, de documents et matériaux 'archives, nous examinons comment le développement du groupe s'est structuré autour des courants épistémologiques de la médecine génétique, identifions es choix effectués par les agences de recherche et retraçons l'évolution de a génétique à l'Université McGill et dans ses hôpitaux.
