Environmental Genome Project Makes Progress

Dec 21, 1998
Premium

BETHESDA, Md.--The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) here is set to begin collecting genetic samples from up to 1,000 people in the US in an effort to identify about 200 genes that may make humans susceptible to such environmentally associated diseases as some cancers and reproductive disorders. The effort is part of the agency's new Environmental Genome Project (see BioInform, October 13).
