About Science, Ethics, Research Technique and the Institute

The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) has produced a series of fact sheets to provide an overview of the institute, explore the social implications of genetic research, and explain complex genetic concepts and research techniques to a non-scientific audience. Teachers, students and the general public alike will find the materials clearly written and easy to understand.
