The Crown Human Genome Center

Doron Lancet, Head


snp The Crown Human Genome Center deals with various aspects of the world wide genome project. Among its various activities, the center offers consultation and practical help in gene mapping, genotyping, database search, genomic clone identification and genomic sequencing. We serve as intermediates between the scientist's interests and the world wide genome project. Hence we consult in the transit from linkage mapping to isolating and characterizing the gene of interest, namely positional cloning. The Weizmann Institute Crown Human Genome Center, in collaboration with the Department of Biological Services and the Jerusalem center, harbors the Genome Knowledge Center, supported by the Israeli Ministry of Science.
