NHGRI - National Human Genome Research Institute - National Institutes of Health (NIH) Research guidance and final approval of NHGRI grants come from the 15-member National Advisory Council for Human Genome Research, which meets three times a year, usually in Bethesda, Md. Members include representatives from health and science disciplines, public health, social sciences and the general public. Another project featured in NHGRI's vision paper and also appearing prominently in NIH's new Roadmap for Medical Research is t he initiative called "Molecular Libraries." Molecular libraries will offer public sector biomedical researchers access to small organic molecules that can be used as chemical probes to study cellular pathways in greater depth. Researchers trying to discover the genes that affect a disease, such as diabetes, will use the set of SNPs from the HapMap to compare a group of people with the disease to a group of people without the disease. www.nih.gov /about/almanac/organization/NHGRI.htm   (263 words)
