NHGRI's new webinar series tackles the latest topics in genomics, health and society through a lively discussion between public health communities, advocacy groups, health providers and members of the public. Archive videos are available now for the first two webinars: Family History: The Next Generation and All About the Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act of 2008.
To help improve human health, NHGRI wants to develop much cheaper ways of sequencing DNA. In the current issue of Nature Biotechnology, Jeff Schloss, Ph.D., NHGRI's chief of the Genome Technology Program, looks at how far we've come — and how far we have to go.
Two National Human Genome Research Institute grantees, Alice Y. Ting, Ph.D., and Saeed Tavazoie, Ph.D., are among the 15 scientists of exceptional creativity chosen to receive a 2008 NIH Director's Pioneer Award. The awards enable researchers to pursue innovative approaches that could possibly transform biomedical and behavioral science.

The National Human Genome Research Institute led the Human Genome Project for the National Institutes of Health, which culminated in the completion of the full human genome sequence in April 2003. Now, NHGRI moves forward into the genomic era with research aimed at improving human health and fighting disease.
