Biographical history
Michael Walter Partington was born January 28, 1926 in Sutton Coldfield, England. He attended St. Bartholomew's Hospital Medical College at London University. His study and practice led him to neurology and pediatrics, ending up with a specialization in medical genetics. He worked in the medical field as a practitioner as well as an academic and researcher, spending a large portion of his time as an academic and researcher at Queen's University in Kingston. He was Head of Pediatrics from 1970 to 1976. Partington is perhaps best known for his work on the fragile X chromosome.
