  • 1. ABGC - American Board of Genetic Counseling
  • * Establishes the standards of competence for clinical practice through accreditation of graduate programs in genetic counseling. Advances the role of genetic counselors in healthcare through the certification and recertification of qualified professionals.
  • 2. AlzGene database
  • The AlzGene database aims to provide a comprehensive, unbiased and regularly updated collection of genetic association studies performed on Alzheimer’s disease phenotypes.

  • 4. Announcements
  • NCHPEG is an "organization of organizations" committed to a national effort to promote health professional education and access to information about advances in human genetics.
  • 6. CINAHL
  • CINAHL seaches nursing and allied health journal literature. Many of these indexed journals contain articles pertaining to genetic counseling.
  • 8. GeneCards
  • GeneCards is an integrated database of human genes that includes automatically-mined genomic, proteomic and transcriptomic information, as well as orthologies, disease relationships, SNPs, gene expression, gene function, and service links for ordering assays and antibodies.
  • 9. GeneTests
  • Managed by the NIH, GeneTests provides publicly funded medical genetics information resource developed for physicians, other healthcare providers, and researchers.
  • 10. GeneTests' Gene Reviews - GeneClinics
  • GeneReviews are expert-authored, peer-reviewed, current disease descriptions that apply genetic testing to the diagnosis, management, and genetic counseling of patients and families with specific inherited conditions. Many genetic counselors use Gene Reviews every day.
  • 11. Genetic Alliance – Disease InfoSearch
  • Disease InfoSearch contains info on advocacy support groups related to specific genetic conditions, information about the clinical features of a wide number of genetic conditions, updates on management, treatment and more. Information is provided the advocacy organizations which form Genetic Alliance.
  • 13. Genetic Testing Registry (GTR)
  • GTR replaces GeneTests from the NCBI. It provides details on genetic tests: test's purpose, methodology, validity, evidence of the test's usefulness, and laboratory contacts and credentials.
  • 15. HGVbaseG2P: a Human Genome Variation and Genotype/Phenotype Database
  • The Human Genome Variation database of Genotype-to-Phenotype information (HGVbaseG2P) provides a centralized compilation of summary level findings from genetic association studies, both large and small. They actively gather datasets from public domain projects, and encourage direct data submission from the community.
  • 19. MutDB
  • The goal of MutDB is to annotate human variation data with protein structural information and other functionally relevant information, if available. The mutations are organized by gene.
