Why is it so Difficult to Study the Genetics of Humans?
The Inter-Society Coordinating Committee for Practitioner Education in Genomics (ISCC-PEG) facilitates genomics education for healthcare providers through collaborative efforts among representatives of professional societies, industry and individuals. Resources submitted by ISCC-PEG members are gathered in a Compendium which is updated annually. A set of Compendium resources are cross-listed in G2C2 and can be searched by including the word “Compendium” in the search.
