Conditions Governing Access
This collection may contain materials with sensitive or confidential individual and patient information, as well as sensitive information about the grant funding process, that is protected under federal or state right to privacy laws and regulations. As such we are unable to make fully available publicly much of these materials. Those that have been made available have been carefully redacted so as to remove all personally identifiable information (PII).
Researchers can request access to items through this site but should be aware that many items will require extensive redactions, or in some cases will be unable to be made available. In these cases, NHGRI History of Genomics staff will work with researchers as much as possible to fullfill requests but we cannot guarantee full compliance with every request.
