Genetic Testing and Human Genetic Databases

open access: yes, 2006
Genetic databases would not exist without the input from donors. Their samples and their associated information are the foundation of their existence. Genetic databases contain very personal, sensitive information and, if misused, could lead to any number of potential harms for the donor.

Informatics β€” genome and genetic databases

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1997
Databases for biologists are becoming increasingly important. Some of these can be regarded as 'core' resources, such as the bibliographic databases, whereas others are of greater interest to specialists. As comparative genomics develops, however, even databases limited in their scope (e.g.

Genetic Databases and their Potential in Pharmacogenomics

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2010
The completion of the human genome sequencing project and the establishment of new methods for the detection of point mutations have lead to a remarkable increase of sequence variants identification in a growing number of genes. As a result of this, a new field of research has emerged, pharmacogenomics, which deals with the influence of genetic ...

Genetic Algorithm for Database Indexing

2004
In this paper we propose a new method for improving efficiency of database systems, using genetic algorithms. We show how table indexes can be coded in chromosomes, and a way to automatically find the best set of indexes for databases.
