The International HapMap Project's an organization whose goal's to develop a haplotype map of the human genome (HapMap), which will describe the common patterns of human genetic variation.The HapMap's expected to be a key resource for researchers to find genetic variants affecting health, disease and responses to drugs and environmental factors. The information produced by the project's made freely available to researchers around the world. The International HapMap Project's a collaboration amon… (More on Hapmap)
