YourGenome.org, a website produced by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, is a new addition to web-based sources of information and educational material on genetics and genome science. The site has three graded levels designed for the needs of beginners (lay people and secondary school students up to GCSE level), those with intermediate knowledge of the subject (A-level students) and advanced users (undergraduate level - still in preparation at the time of writing). Information about basic genetics and genomics is supplemented by answers to lists of frequently asked questions, news about advances in genome science, and a news forum page that allows users to add their own news story. YourGenome.org aims to spark participation and feedback by running polls on controversial questions and competitions for essays and pictures on topics in genomics.
