The Human Genome Project has created a free multimedia kit that can serve as an educational tool for high school students. The 15-minute video, which received a gold medal from the New York Film Festival, traces the development, evolution, and impact of the HGP and genomics research. Using images such as DNA expression microarrays and wiggling roundworms, the video features scientists and HGP leaders explaining what human genome research is all about. Though designed for high school students in general or introductory biology classes, it may also be useful for college students and the general public.
