This guide navigates the internet for human genetics resources. It highlights key sites for the Human Genome Project, genetics education, and human genetic diseases.

Area of Science:

  • Genetics
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Charles Darwin's theory of evolution stemmed from observations during his voyage on the HMS Beagle.
  • The internet now serves as a vast resource for scientific information, akin to Darwin's explorations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a curated guide to valuable online resources in human genetics.
  • To assist both geneticists and the general public in navigating the digital landscape for genetic information.

Main Methods:

  • Identification and selection of informative and original websites.
  • Categorization of resources into three key areas: Human Genome Project, education, and genetic diseases.
  • Compilation of an extensive list of additional resources on a supplementary 'jump site'.

Main Results:
