The NHGRI Sample Repository for Human Genetic Research offers DNA samples and cell lines from ten populations, including the samples used to develop the HapMap (except for the CEPH samples). The samples were contributed following extensive community consultation and with broad consent by the donors to their use in future genetic research. The samples are high-quality resources for the study of genetic variation in a range of human populations.The sequencing of the entire human genome allowed the development of a haplotype map of the human genome. The haplotype map, or "HapMap", is a tool that allows researchers to find genes and genetic variations that affect health and disease. This should be useful for the future of patient care.
