Posted Sep-2006: PGP Volunteers Needed.

The Personal Genome Project (a collaborative project with researchers from Harvard Medical School and Partner's Healthcare) is recruiting seven individuals to participate in a new approach to Human Genome/Phenome comprehensive data integration including 'identifying information ' such as genome sequencing and facial features. The PGP is also championing a new IRB-approved consenting mechanism which frankly discusses the likelihood of disclosure of identifying information in many modern medical research projects and this one in particular. We are seeking a diverse range of volunteers, male and female, from all backgrounds. Our IRB approval restricts us to volunteers with at least a master's degree in genetics or equivalent. Consent forms will be signed and blood drawn at Partner's Healthcare Clinical Center in Boston. For more information and email contact see: http://pgen.us
