The Genome Registry - Science, Fun, and Irreverence - With a Purpose
Online, October 8, 2013 (Newswire.com) - The Genome Registry appears to be taking both the scientific community, and the gift industry, by storm. Their unique approach, which combines scientific education with novelty gift personalization, has caught the attention of students and professionals worldwide.
The Genome Registry capitalizes on genome sequencing and mapping by offering the ability to name a gene or chromosome from any currently mapped organism for yourself, a loved one, or anyone.
According to Dr. Scott Cooper, a Molecular Biologist at the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse, "Why let the scientists who discover genes have all the fun naming them?"
It is with this attention to scientific detail, in a fun and somewhat irreverent way, that makes The Genome Registry so appealing to so many.
Dr. James Enderby Bidlack, VP and Chief Science Officer of The Genome Registry states that "The gift of a gene or chromosome pseudonym provides a way for people, both within and outside the scientific community, a personal involvement with scientific discovery - with a creative, romantic, intelligent, or sensitive twist."
Additionally, The Genome Registry satisfies our altruistic need to support meaningful causes, by donating a portion of every customer registration to a scientific research or wildlife preservation nonprofit organization.
Registration with The Genome Registry (at The Genome Registry) provides a letter of congratulations, acknowledging the individual's contribution to science education and research; a personalized chart containing a detailed graphical representation of the selected genomic component; and, a personalized full color parchment certificate with the genomic component name, data description and date of issuance.
