The Human Genome Project - a monumental scientific achievement. Where do we go from here? This is the official government website dedicate d to the HPG - the National Human Genome Research Institute.
Human Genome Resources - Browse your genome! A challenge facing researchers today is that of piecing together and analyzing the plethora of data currently being generated through the Human Genome Project and scores of smaller projects.
Map View of Human Genome Sequencing - this site shows the location of all genes of the human genome. Check it out! Can you find the DNA sequence for a specific trait that you have?
Map View of Genome Sequencing - a database of all currently known genome mapping and sequencing data for life on earth.
