Abstract

There is a well‐recognized growing need for improved access to online genetic and genomics education for professionals, students, teachers, and the public. Numerous individual online genetic and genomic educational resources have been developed, but many are difficult to identify or locate when required. Consequently, an easily navigated website, European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) Genetic Educational Materials and Sources (https://www.EuroGEMS.org), has recently been created, on behalf of the ESHG, by the authors. It facilitates access by a wide variety of target audience types and levels to a broad range of 110 selected, free, high‐quality educational online genetic and genomic resources around the world, including several in languages other than English. The website has been endorsed by the ESHG, directly linked from that society's web pages, and has now been used in over 105 countries.
