USER-FRIENDLY: Maps of human genetic markers integrate the work of many labs, according to Fox Chase's Kenneth Buetow.
The value of linkage maps of the human genome to various biomedical disciplines is becoming increasingly evident to researchers. These maps-based on inheritance patterns of linked genes-have been generated by a number of groups participating in the worldwide Human Genome Project, including the National Institutes of Health's National Center for Human Genome Research (NCHGR) in Bethesda, Md., and the Centre d'Etude Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) in Paris.

This paper represents one of the earliest attempts to integrate genetic ...

A Stubborn Gene, a Failed Experiment, and a New Path

When experiments refuse to cooperate, you try again and again. For Rafael Najmanovich, the setbacks ultimately pushed him in a new direction.
