EuroGenGuide contains information about genetic testing, counselling and research across Europe.
The information is intended as a resource for both patients and their families, and health professionals alike.
You might be concerned that you or a relative may be affected by a genetic condition, or your doctor may have asked you if you would be prepared to donate biological samples to a DNA bank for use in research.
Alternatively you may be a doctor with a patient who might have a genetic condition and requires a test, or you might be a genetic researcher carrying out a study.
If any situations such as this apply to you, then EuroGenGuide can help. Within the website you will be able to find comprehensive information for patients and the public, and also guidelines for health professionals. Click on the relevant icon at the top of the page to take you straight there, or click here to find out more about us

Although you are using this website, EuroGenGuide is still in development, and will continue to be developed until its completion at the end of 2009, so we need YOUR help to make EuroGenGuide as useful as it can be.
