Simple Genetics: Wiki of genetic test reviews August 6, 2008

This site has been on my list for a while.
Simple GeneticsTM: genetic test reviews is an independent wiki-based resource dedicated to the provision of reviews and unbiased information about commonly available genetic tests, its clinical validity and utility.
The project aims to improve the quality and accessibility of information regarding genetic tests and help to make informed choice decision for physicians and/or patients.
The content of reviews is created based on available information on the companies websites, scientific articles, media resources, wikipedia and reports of independent clinical assessment organizations. The commercial test manufacturers or providers will be also asked to provide any published or unpublished relevant data.
Information will be reviewed and edited by registered clinicians or scientists working in clinical genetic settings.
Though, the site seems to be inactive and we all know how much chance a new wiki has nowadays to become a well-edited, regularly updated database. I tell you, not much…
