Mirror sites of the GDB Web server (http://www.gdb.org) are now available from many GDB nodes worldwide (see URLs in box at right). Users can access a GDB Web server via the network connection that provides the quickest response time for their location. Links to these sites are also available from the main GDB Web server in Baltimore on the GDB Home Page under "Links to Related Resources." New GDB Web sites will be included as they become available. GDB data accessed from all GDB Web servers are updated daily.
2013 post-production note: GDB (Wikipedia) is no longer operational. See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/genome/guide/human/index.shtml

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.
