Interviews With Experts


Starting in September 1995, selected individuals from areas germane to this initiative were interviewed concerning the idea of merging HGP technologies with mutation research in order to obtain input and starting points for future meetings planned in this effort. The individuals interviewed thus far have all expressed enthusiastic support for our project and suggested several areas where new technologies could be applied to better evaluate the mechanisms or detection of mutations. These discussions have been recorded for future reference. Persons interviewed or contacted for input are listed below, along with their affiliation and area of expertise.

These types of interactions will continue because, not only do we obtain a wealth of ideas and suggestions, they also provide the opportunity to make researchers in both fields (mutation research and genomics) aware of our project.
