CogPrints: Cognitive Science Eprint Archive
An electronic archive for papers in any area of psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and many areas of computer science (artificial intelligence, robotics, vision, learning, speech, neural networks), philosophy (mind, language, knowledge, science, logic), biology (ethology, behavioural ecology, sociobiology, behaviour genetics, evolutionary theory), medicine (psychiatry, neurology, human genetics, imaging), anthropology (primatology, cognitive ethnology, archaeology, palaeontology), as well as any other portions of the physical, social, and mathematical sciences that are pertinent to the study of cognition.
     Author: Southampton University
     Subjects: computer science research, human genetics, neuroscience, philosophical logic, philosophy of mind, psychiatry research, psychology research, speech processing
     DeweyClass: 150
     Resource type: articles
European Federation of Biotechnology
Task group on public perceptions of biotechnology, with the aim of fostering greater public awareness and understanding of biotechnology and encouraging public debate. Includes the full text of reports such as Patenting in Biotechnology, Applications of Human Genetic Research, and Environmental Biotechnology.
     Author: EFB Task Group
     Subjects: biotechnology, human genetics
     DeweyClass: 660.6
     Resource type: documents
Genetics Home Reference
Resource enabling users to investigate specific genes and genetic conditions. Offers summaries of genetic disorders comprising a brief description of the symptoms, diagnostic process, and treatment options, along with gene summaries providing the official name and symbol of a gene, its chromosomal location, and an explanation of its normal function and how mutations in the gene cause particular genetic conditions. Material is keyword searchable and browsable by gene or condition.
     Author: National Library of Medicine
     Subjects: genetics education, human genetics
     DeweyClass: 599.93
     Resource type: directory
Human Genetics
A monthly international journal covering all aspects of human and medical genetics, including gene cloning, linkage, complex diseases and mutagenesis, developmental and evolutionary genetics, genetic aspects of tumorigenesis, gene therapy, human behavioural genetics, modifier genes and other genes affecting genotype/phenotype relationships.
     Author: Springer
     Subjects: cloning, human genetics
     DeweyClass: 599.93
     Resource type: journal
Human Genome Sequencing
An international research program designed to construct detailed genetic and physical maps of the human genome. Provides background information on the project, specific sequences for each human chromosome, and genome maps of other organisms.
     Author: National Center for Biotechnology Information
     Subjects: human genetics
     DeweyClass: 599.93
     Resource type: documents
MITOMAP: A Human Mitochondrial Genome Database
MITOMAP uses the mtDNA sequence as the unifying element for bringing together information on mitochondrial genome structure and function, pathogenic mutations and their clinical characteristics, population associated variation, and gene-gene interactions.
     Author: Emory University School of Medicine
     Subjects: human genetics
     DeweyClass: 572.8

National Center for Genome Resources
The Center maintains the Genome Sequence Database (GSDB). It is one of four international centres providing central organisation and analysis of genetic information from researchers worldwide, including the Human Genome Project, the effort to map and sequence the complete human genetic structure. Also includes information on the ethics of human genetics.
     Author: National Center for Genome Resources
     Subjects: genetics research, human genetics, medical ethics
     DeweyClass: 572.8

     Author: NCBI: National Library of Medicine / National Institutes of Health
     Subjects: biotechnology, human genetics, mice
     DeweyClass: 660.6
     Resource type: reference data
New Gene Map of the Human Genome
Map giving the locations of more than 30,000 genes which can be used to identify and isolate those that directly cause human ailments or increase susceptibility to disease. Produced by the Human Genome Project which aims to develop a complete and accurate DNA sequence representing the genetic blueprint and evolutionary history of the human species.
     Author: International RH Mapping Consortium, National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)
     Subjects: human genetics
     DeweyClass: 599.93
