Current Protocols in Human Genetics is the resource for designing and running successful research projects in all branches of human genetics.

Updated every three months in all formats, CPHG is constantly evolving to keep pace with the very latest discoveries and developments. A year of these quarterly updates is included in the initial CPHG purchase price. That's 570 pages of new (43%) and revised (57%) content on average every year since the initial publication of the work in April 1994! Presently four volumes in its looseleaf print version, CPHG...

• features methods in all areas of genetic research, including disease study, expression analysis, clinical genetics, analysis of sequence variants, cytogenetics, gene therapy, forensic genetics, biochemical genetics and more.
• offers basic to sophisticated methods— many of them equally applicable to other eukaryotic organisms, such as the mouse.
• provides valuable appendices, such as "Commonly Used Techniques" which includes molecular biology and cell culture methods, basic mouse handling techniques, basic statistics.
