Definitively awesome.

The goal of the International HapMap Project is to develop a haplotype map of the human genome, the HapMap, which will describe the common patterns of human DNA sequence variation. Listen to more about HapMap in the Nature Podcast.

In this updated Web Focus, Nature presents a guide to the human genome and the International HapMap project. The papers presented here serve as the definitive historical record for the sequences and analyses of human chromosomes, the ultimate results of the Human Genome Project, and the first edition of the HapMap - a massive catalogue of human genetic variation that is already leading to genetic disease identification and treatments...

In addition, the above "web focus" link leads to several links to the reseach papers (on the DNA sequence and analysis of a number of human chromosomes) associated with the international HapMap project, like this one.

Definitively awesome.
