GENOMICS

There are many ways to investigate the human genome, such as constructing maps of genomic landmarks, examining the morphology of normal and abnormal chromosomes, characterizing individual genes, following the genetic transmission of phenotypes and DNA sequence variations. To this we can now add the elucidation of the genomic DNA sequence. A general recognition in the field by visiting the following sites may be a starting point for further and more specific quests.
