A collection of articles on genetics appears in the July 24 issue of the British medical journal The Lancet, supplement on molecular medicine 354(1). The full text is on the Web.
The electronic form of the newsletter may be cited in the following style:

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international 13-year effort, 1990 to 2003. Primary goals were to discover the complete set of human genes and make them accessible for further biological study, and determine the complete sequence of DNA bases in the human genome. See Timeline for more HGP history.
Published from 1989 until 2002, this newsletter facilitated HGP communication, helped prevent duplication of research effort, and informed persons interested in genome research.
