Biological Data Transport Upgrade

Recent upgrades of the Biological Data Transport bioinformatics resource include additions to the Query Depot. The site provides a central location to conduct bioinformatics-related searches of public data. These searches, which can be requested simultaneously for the same query to save time, provide access to such resources as GenBank, Entrez, BCM Search Launcher, BLAST, Genome Database, Human Gene Mutation Database, and several vendors.

Human Genome Project 1990–2003

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.

Human Genome News

Published from 1989 until 2002, this newsletter facilitated HGP communication, helped prevent duplication of research effort, and informed persons interested in genome research.
