The 'Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology' ( ) contains concise and updated cards on genes involved in cancer, cytogenetics and clinical entities in oncology, and cancer-prone diseases, a portal towards genetics/cancer, and teaching materials in genetics. This database is made for and by researchers and clinicians, who are encouraged to contribute. The Atlas is part of the genome project and it participates in research on cancer epidemiology.

The Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology, created in 1997 by Jean-Loup Huret (with bioinformatics by Philippe Dessen) is a collection of resources on genes, chromosomes anomalies, leukemias, solid tumours, and cancer-prone diseases. The project is accessible through Internet and is made of encyclopedic-style files, as well as traditional overviews, links towards websites and databases devoted to cancer and/or genetics, case reports in haematology. It also encompasses teaching items in various languages.[1]

The Atlas is part of the genome project and participates in research on cancer epidemiology. The Atlas is accessed by: 1- researchers in cytogenetics, molecular biology, cell biology; 2- clinicians, haematologists, cytogeneticists, pathologists, from the university hospitals, indeed, but also from general hospitals where the Atlas is one of the rare free resources. Junior doctors in haematology or oncology, are also most receptive to the Atlas that they see as a training and educational tool; 3-Students in medicine and life sciences.[5]

In 2018, Jess Mara Hernndez Rivas (Salamanca, Spain) and Paola Dal Cin (Boston, Massachusetts) joined Jean-Loup Huret as Co-Editors in Chief, and in April 2021 Alessandro Beghini (Milano, Italy) and Joo Agostinho Machado-Neto (So Paulo, Brazil) replace Jean-Loup Huret. "After 25 years building the Atlas day after day, Jean-Loup Huret and Philippe Dessen will take a little rest", as is said on the web site.[7]

The Atlas is also published as a scientific journal by CNRS,[8] and is referenced by Scopus et Embase.The Atlas is financially supported by scientific societies, charities and individual donations. More data is available from the site of the association in charge of the Atlas.[9]
