- W2335609944 abstract "Forrest Adams is a descendant of Presidents John Adams (1735–1826) and John Quincy Adams (1767–1848), both of whom had long lives for the era into which they were born, which may indicate the role of genetics in his longevity. Both his grandparents and great grandparents lived into their 80s and 90s. Even as a medical student, he became interested in hereditary disorders and wrote an article before graduation, which was published approximately 1 year later, as the first article in his extensive bibliography. Indeed, the hereditary disorder that he described now bears his name, being the description of what became known as the Adams-Oliver syndrome. (1) This has to be a rare distinction for one so young at the time. The disorder consists of aplasia cutis congenita, in association with terminal transverse defects of the limbs and (in the first case he saw) a skull defect. The limb defects are not dissimilar to those seen with amniotic band syndrome. It is fair to say that Forrest Adams was (and is) a polymath (“a person of great learning in several fields of study”). Not only did he continue to be interested in genetics, he then spent time investigating infectious diseases, before moving on to pediatric cardiology and later to pulmonary physiology. As I found out in a recent telephone conversation, Dr Adams, at the age of 94 (going on 95), remembers in considerable detail many of the circumstances that led to his important contributions.⇓Photograph taken in 2009 when receiving the Harold S.
