Education Resources
Sites that provide a basic guide to genetics and general science:
DNA from the Beginning - An excellent animated site with general introductions to DNA, genes and heredity.
Genetic Science Learning Center - Introduces basic genetics and aims to help people understand how genetics affects their lives and society.
Genetics: Gateway to the Future - Explains basic genetics and explores such diverse topics as technology, ethics, forensics, careers in genetics, and genetic diseases. Also has an interactive game, quiz, and discussion forum.
Glossaries of Genome/Human Genetics Terms - Lists links to glossaries of genomics and human genetics terms.
Human Genome Project Information - Lots of information on the Human Genome Project. Includes its history, the science behind the project and the social issues that it creates. You can also print off a free chromosome poster.
