There’s an intersting interview with Svante Pääbo here. In case you’ve been living under a rock the last few years: Svante Pääbo is running the Neanderthal genome sequencing program.

I got an email this morning pointing me to Scitable at Nature.
What Is Scitable?
A free science library and personal learning tool brought to you by Nature Publishing Group, the world’s leading publisher of science.
Scitable currently concentrates ongenetics, the study of evolution, variation, and the rich complexity of living organisms. As you cultivate your understanding of modern genetics on Scitable, you will explore not only what we know about genetics and the ways it impacts our society, but also the data and evidence that supports our knowledge.
I browsed around a bit and there are a nice collection of short articles describing various areas of genetics and genomics. I haven’t tried out any of the learning paths or any of the other features yet. I have to finish a grant proposal so that has to wait. Anyway, you might find it interesting to check out.
