Personal Genome Project - Homepage


Volunteers from the general public working together with researchers to advance personal genomics.


We believe individuals from the general public have a vital role to play in making personal genomes useful. We are recruiting volunteers who are willing to share their genome sequence and many types of personal information with the research community and the general public, so that together we will be better able to advance our understanding of genetic and environmental contributions to human traits. Learn more about how to participate in the Personal Genome Project.




Focus


Project Overview. The PGP hopes to make personal genome sequencing more affordable, accessible, and useful for humankind. Learn more about our mission.
