The HapMap Project seeks to identify signposts on the human genome that will simplify the search for important genetic variants. In the latest phase - HapMap 3 - the researchers looked for variants ...

This will probably only be of interest to population genetics afficianados, but I just noticed that the HapMap project has made its phase 3 data available through its browser (the data were previously ...

The second phase of the International HapMap Project, an effort to identify and catalog genetic similarities and differences among populations around the world, has been completed. Information ...

Newswise — The international team of scientists working to determine the most common variations of the human genome report the details of their plans, known as the "HapMap" project, in the Dec. 18 ...

An international project to map common patterns of genetic variation in humans has been launched, and the University of Oxford is the only UK university chosen to be involved. The HapMap project is an ...

The Haplotype Mapping Project (HapMap) has created a significant resource for human genetic studies by mapping the patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in the human genome, and by creating a ...

Investigators from six countries have completed the second phase of the International HapMap Project, an effort to identify and catalog genetic similarities and differences among populations around ...

Institute will establish a sample repository for populations next in line to be studied. The Coriell Institute for Medical Research was awarded a $3.1 million contract from the NHGRI to establish a ...

Three years after its launch, Phase I of the International HapMap project (HapMap) is now complete (The International HapMap Consortium. Nature 437, 1299–1320; 2005). The information is already ...

BETHESDA, Md., Fri., Dec. 10, 2004 – The International HapMap Consortium today announced that it is ending computer-based "click wrap" license restrictions on data generated by its effort to create a ...

Using the information in the HapMap, researchers are able to find genes that affect health, disease, and individual responses to medications and environmental factors. For example, the goal of the ...

An ambitious plan to sequence and compare the genomes of 1,000 people promises to provide scientists with the most detailed picture yet of human genetic variation. The 1000 Genomes Project, announced ...
