A Revolution In Progress: Human Genetics and Medical Research

http://history.nih.gov/exhibits/genetics/index.htm

This online exhibit under Office of NIH History asks three major questions: (1) How do genes cause disease? (2) Can gene therapy work? (3) How do we manipulate genes and should we? It introduces topics such as genetic basics, diagnosing and treating genetic diseases, gene therapy, the human genome project, and Ethics issues. Abundant images and glossary links used in this exhibit might be especially helpful for biology beginners.
