The authors advise of a factual error in the published article. In the second paragraph we stated ‘John Vince came to PNG from the UK in 1976, a young paediatrician, trained in Edinburgh, fresh from a Doctorate of Medicine in genetics, and he stayed for 48 years’. In fact, Prof Vince graduated from the University of Dundee (not Edinburgh).
