Anat Blumenfeld is an Israeli research biochemist at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem. Blumenfeld discovered a chromosome responsible for the serious disease Familial dysautonomia which affects the nerves of fetuses. About 100 families in Israel of Ashkenazi Jewish origin have one or more children with the disease, and they suffer from nausea, high blood pressure, and some food entering their lungs.
