Question: Joshua T. Mendell and Victor A. McKusick are both experts in what field of medicine?

<P0-S0> Acute medicine is that part of internal medicine concerned with the immediate and early specialist management of adult patients with a wide range of medical conditions who present in hospital as emergencies. <P0-S1>  It developed in the United Kingdom in the early 2000s as a dedicated field of medicine, together with the establishment of acute medical units in numerous hospitals. <P0-S2>  Acute medicine is distinct from the broader field of emergency medicine, which is concerned with the management of all people attending the emergency department, not just those with internal medicine diagnoses. <P0-S3>  The emergence of acute medicine has both similarities with and differences from hospital medicine in North America, reflecting health system differences. <SEP> <P1-S0>  Mendell is a Howard Hughes Medical Institute early career scientist and a preceptor for two Johns Hopkins graduate programs. <P1-S1> Joshua T. Mendell, M.D., Ph.D., is an associate professor of pediatrics and molecular biology and genetics at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, where he is a faculty member of the McKusick-Nathans Institute of Genetic Medicine. <P1-S2>  His molecular biology research examines microRNA (miRNA) regulation and function, with particular emphasis on miRNAs and cancer. <SEP> <P2-S0> Genetic Alliance is a nonprofit organization, founded in 1986 by Joan O. Weiss, working with Victor A. McKusick, to advocate for health benefits in the accelerating field of genomic research. <P2-S1>  This organization is a network of over 1,000 disease advocacy organizations, universities, government organizations, private companies, and public policy organizations. <P2-S2>  They aim to advance genetic research agendas toward health benefit by engaging a broad range of stakeholders, including healthcare providers, researchers, industry professionals, public policy leaders, as well as individuals, families and communities. <P2-S3>  They create programs using a collaborative approach, and aim to increase efficiency and reduce obstacles in genetic research, while ensuring that voices from the involved disease communities are heard. <P2-S4>  They also promote public policies to advance healthcare. <P2-S5>  Genetic Alliance provides technical support and informational resources to guide disease-specific advocacy organizations in being their own research advocates. <P2-S6>  They also maintain a biobank as a central storage facility for several organizations who otherwise would not have the infrastructure to maintain their own repository. <SEP> <P3-S0> Victor Almon McKusick (October 21, 1921 – July 22, 2008) was an American internist and medical geneticist, and Professor of Medicine at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore. <P3-S1>  He is widely known as the "father of medical genetics". <P3-S2>  He was a proponent of the mapping of the human genome due to its use for studying congenital diseases. <P3-S3>  He is well known for his studies of the Amish and, what he called, "little people". <P3-S4>  He was the original author and, until his death, remained chief editor of Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM) and its online counterpart Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM).
