This paper describes how populations were considered for different purposes: scientific inquiry, standardization of medical practices, and production or application of medicines. Through the narrative of the different trajectories and collaborations between Armendares and Lisker, this paper also attempts to show the contact of their scientific practices, which brought cytogenetics and population genetics together at the local and global levels from a transnational perspective. 2019 artículo científico 0104-5970 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=386159172014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386159172014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386159172014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386159172014/386159172014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386159172014/movil 10.1590/S0104-59702019000100014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3861 História, Ciências, Saúde - Manguinhos application/pdf Fundação Oswaldo Cruz História, Ciências, Saúde - Manguinhos (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.26
