“Unzipped,” not the film about Isaac Mizrahi

Just got notice of a new weblog, Unzipped, which I have added to my RSS feed. One of the primary contributors is Dr. Daniel MacArthur of Genetic Future (no, he’s not leaving ScienceBlogs!). Another is the always impressive Luke Jostins. Here’s their raison d’etre:

Welcome to Genomes Unzipped, a new group blog bringing together experts in the scientific, legal, ethical and commercial aspects of genetics. Our goal is to provide you with independent analysis of advances in the field of genetics, with a particular focus on implications for the budding industry of personal genomics. We’ll also be discussing ways in which you can make the most of your own genetic data using online resources and techniques developed by researchers.
