The OpenHelix Blog

Welcome to our Friday feature link collection: SNPpets. During the week we come across a lot of links and reads that we think are interesting, but don’t make it to a blog post. Here they are for your enjoyment…

• RT @SEQanswers: Great blog article on the various genome coordinate systems: http://t.co/LTHLoBVB [Mary]
• Another treasure trove of data that is being underutilized: Michigan Neonatal Biobank and an article describing the resource “Michigan Biotrust for Health spots opportunities in blood research” [Jennifer]
• Interesting story on his career path and work: RT @NatureNews: Environmental activist, Intelligent Design critic. Oh+he raises proteins from the dead. Meet Joe Thornton http://t.co/m1OymJDz [Mary]
• Great post about databases linking SNPs to phenotype and diseases and do we need another one? Good way to get a list of databases that do just that: One database to hold them all (corrected, wrong link before) [Trey]
• Learned of at ACMG conference this week: ARUP Scientific Resource for Research & Education, with disease databases, video lectures & more. [Jennifer]
