Genome Investigator Gifts

"Good news, Mr. Vanderfirth. We've traced your lineage back to a woman who lived in East Africa two hundred thousand years ago."

"We think it has something to do with your genome."

DNA Analysis.

"Perkins! What have you gone and done now...??"

'That's interesting -- I seem to have discovered the gene that makes people want to become geneticists.'

Preparing for Casual Friday at the Genome Lab

'Darling, we were made for each other.'

'The future of medicine' "It's genomics." "I'd say proteins." "Same as always: economics."

'Despite all the work that has been put into it, it's clear that the genome code is not a get-rich-quick scheme.'

'Of course he reminds you of yourself at his age -- he's your clone.'

Gene Manipulation

The dna double helix, with a human family taking the place of the dna rungs (or bases), illustrating genetic inheritance within the family

"No movie deals, no endorsements, no product tie-ins..."

"We cloned DNA from Captain Cook's bookts, and grew the world's largest piece of tinea!"

"Cloning is all very well in theory, but do you have any proof it can actually work?"

Man climbing a dna 'ladder'.

Garden genomes.

A flower beats up another flower - Genetically Engineered plants tend to be more aggressive than naturally grown ones.

Mother and child riding a DNA rollercoaster.

"From now on, take the human genome outside before you unravel it"

Specialized regions in a couple of human chromosomes.

On the road with the map of the human genome.

'I hope you are not playing God again . . .'

'He followed me home from the cloning lab. Can I keep him?'

'It's not supposed to be a triple helix, is it?'

Thomas Hunt Morgan

"He doesn't look like you at all."

Genetic Engineering - biohazards dept.

'They're not testing drugs on us - they're testing us. We're transgenic.'

Recombinant DNA Lab.

"I'm scared of germs lurking under my bed."

Hospital chart 'GTACT...'

"Not much to look at, but it was a real bargain at the Gene Depot."
