Acknowledgements:Numerous scientists with expertise in genomes and genomics have been involved in our preliminary discussions and research. Keith Roberts (Photo/ID curator) has considerable expertise in the DNA area (he is co-author of the Alberts et al text Molecular Biology of the Cell, whose 5th edition is published in December 2007), and Dr Barbara Jennings, the local People of the British Isles expert is also a consultant and collaborator on the project, but in addition we have consulted the following experts: Chris Tyler-Smith (Sanger Centre, Cambridge), Thomas Haizel (Anglia DNA Services Ltd.), and David Cooper (Cardiff University).

IBM Global Business Services, New York 2007 Web Sites The Wellcome Trust Case-Control Consortium (WTCCC) is a group of 50 research groups across the UK which was established in 2005. The WTCCC aims were to exploit progress in understanding of patterns of human genome sequence variation along with advances in high-throughput genotyping technologies, and to explore the utility, design and analyses of genome-wide association (GWA) studies. www.wtccc.org.uk/ People of the British Isles: PoBI have been given funding by the Wellcome Trust to collect blood samples from 3,500 people from rural populations throughout the British Isles. These will be used to look at the patterns of differences in people’s genetic make up around the UK. The project will have two purposes, the first to help medical research, and the second to shed light on ancient migrations within the British Isles. www.peopleofthebritishisles.org/ ESRC Genomics Policy and Research Forum (EGN) is a major investment by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), dedicated to examining the development and use of the science and technologies of genomics. The activities of the EGN span the whole field of genomics, covering areas as diverse as plant and animal genetics, embryonic stem cell research, and associated health applications. www.genomicsnetwork.ac.uk/ IdentiNet is a network of academics from four continents, working to tell the story of individual identification within a long-term, international and comparative framework. http://identinet.org.uk/ The Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) is the international organisation of scientists involved in human genetics. Established in 1989 by a collection of the world's leading human geneticists, the primary ethos of the Human Genome Organisation is to promote and sustain international collaboration in the field of human genetics. www.hugo-international.org/ The International HapMap Project is a multi-country effort to identify and catalog genetic similarities and differences in human beings. Using the information in the HapMap, researchers will be able to find genes that affect health, disease, and individual responses to medications and environmental factors. http://www.hapmap.org/ Culture and Identity in Photography: A Study Room Resource. This study room resource, compiled by the Victoria and Albert Museum, contains photographs that deal with issues of cultural identity. It explores the work of black, Asian and Middle Eastern photographers and of white photographers who have worked in cultures other than their own. www.vam.ac.uk/collections/photography/ Genetics and Identity Project is a US initiative that brings together notable scholars from genetics, philosophy, medicine, law, religious studies, sociology, cultural anthropology, and history, as well as scholars whose work is intimately tied to questions of race and ethnicity, such as those working in African-American Studies, Jewish Studies, and Native American Studies. Funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health, the project, which began in the fall of 2000, addresses the central question, “How might new ways of mapping genetic variation change the way that an individual or a group conceptualizes its identity?” www.ahc.umn.edu/bioethics/genetics_and_identity/ |
