Completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project (HGP) was a 13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Institutes of Health. During the early years of the HGP, the Wellcome Trust (U.K.) became a major partner; additional contributions came from Japan, France, Germany, China, and others. See our history page for more information. Project goals were to identify all the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA, determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA, store this information in databases, improve tools for data analysis, transfer related technologies to the private sector, and address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) that may arise from the project. Though the HGP is finished, analyses of the data will continue for many years. Follow this ongoing research on our Progress page. ... [Information of the supplier]

Launched in 1993, Access Excellence is a national educational program that provides high school health and biology teachers access to their colleagues, scientists, and critical sources of new scientific information via the World Wide Web. In 1999, Access Excellence was donated to the National Health Museum by Genentech, a leading biotechnology company. Access Excellence currently forms the core of the educational component of the National Health Museum Website and will be expanded substantially to better serve the needs of K-12 health educators. ...

"Where do we come from?", "Who are we?", "Where are we going to?" The exhibition of the Neanderthal Museum is based on those central topics. One can find them in any part of the house. The permanent exhibition traces humankind's long journey from the origins in the African savannahs to the urban centres of our times. Of course, emphasis is given to the Neanderthals and the true-to-life figures based upon skeletal remains which were reconstructed using the latest forensic methods. Multimedia arrangements and audio-experiences, but also classical media such as exhibits and texts give vivid insights into the results of current archaeological and palaeoanthropological research. Computer terminals offer the opportunity for further individual in-depth research. ... [Information of the supplier]
GeneCards® is an integrated database of human genes that includes automatically-mined genomic, proteomic and transcriptomic information, as well as orthologies, disease relationships, SNPs, gene expression, gene function, and service links for ordering assays and antibodies.

Based on the mapping of the human genome and the development of information databases, a broad description of genes transcribed in blood cells is now known. Hembase was developed to provide worldwide access to those genetic-based studies performed by scientists in the Molecular Biology and Genetics Section, Molecular Medicine Branch, Division of Intramural Research, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK). This project represents the shared goal of several individuals and groups (credits) interested in disseminating genomic information on the World Wide Web. ... [Information of the supplier]
The HCV database group strives to present HCV-associated genetic and immunologic data in a userfriendly way, by providing access to the central database via web-accessible search interfaces and supplying a number of analysis tools. (...) The HCV search interface allows you to find and download sequences on the basis of a number of criteria. (...) You can either download all sequences (as nucleotides or amino acid sequences) that meet your criteria, or you can limit your set to a specific gene or region by selecting that genomic region on the search interface. (...) ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
Influenza Virus Resource presents data obtained from the NIAID Influenza Genome Sequencing Project as well as from GenBank, combined with tools for flu sequence analysis and annotation. In addition, it provides links to other resources that contain flu sequences, publications and general information about flu viruses. [Information of the supplier]
Sequencing of the human genome has opened the way and provided the impetus for building a comprehensive picture of a mammalian cell. Significant efforts are underway in the fields of genomics and proteomics to identify all genes and proteins in a given organism. The goal is a complete map of the genes, gene products and their interaction networks in a functioning cell. The next step in establishing a comprehensive picture of a cell will be to tie the cell's metabolome into the rapidly developing genomic and proteomic maps. A cell's metabolome, however, is such an enormous and complex entity that characterizing it can only be approached in sections. This consortium is now proposing to focus on the lipid section of the metabolome by developing an integrated metabolomic system capable of characterizing the global changes in lipid metabolites ("lipidomics"). Our consortium has developed a Lipid Metabolites and Pathways Strategy, termed LIPID MAPS, that applies a global integrated approach to the study of lipidomics. ... [Information of the supplier]
