Human genetics is a field studying the mutation of disease. Advanced human genetics is a course for medical school students. It is a study of the genome sciences reserved for elite universities and residency programs.
The Human Genome Project's purpose is to analyze and map the entire human genome -- that is, to determine all the genes that are involved in human biology. They're doing this to correlate genes to the traits they influence so that the genes (or lack thereof) responsible for disease can be identified.
No, it is not possible for a human and a gorilla to reproduce and have offspring together because they are different species with incompatible genetics.
The discovery of DNA and the human genome project have greatly helped scientists gain a better understanding of human genetics by identifying specific genes, their functions, and their interactions. This has allowed for advancements in areas such as personalized medicine, gene therapy, and the study of genetic diseases.
The system of grouping human chromosomes was named after the city of Paris, where it was developed during the International Congress of Human Genetics in 1971.
It usually is considered to be a discipline of the biological sciences (Biology). An introductory Biology textbook is sure to have a chapter (or perhaps several chapters) on Genetics. In advanced Biology classes, you are likely to take an entire course on Genetics, and are likely to be using an entire textbook dealing only with Genetics.
The American Journal of Human Genetics has a wealth of information regarding the various aspects of genetics as a whole. Human genetics tends to be a very broad topic.

Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics was created in 1994.
Human genetics is the study of how genes influence human traits and characteristics. It explores the inheritance of traits from parents to offspring and how variations in genes can impact health, development, and disease susceptibility in humans. This field also investigates the role of genetics in understanding evolutionary relationships among different human populations.
