Mathematical structure This mathematical graph-based structure will augment the existing human reference genome with all common human variations, providing a means to name, identify, and analyze ...

When it was launched in April 2003, the Human Genome Project helped revolutionize biomedical research by providing scientists a reference map that allowed them to analyze DNA sequences for genetic ...

The Human Genome Project gave us the full set of instructions for a complete human being, and the ten years that followed revealed thousands of genetic differences associated with human disease.

Completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project gave us the first sequence of the human genome, albeit based on DNA from a small handful of people. Building upon its success, the 1000 Genomes Project ...

Drawing on the expertise of multidisciplinary research teams, the 1000 Genomes Project will develop a new map of the human genome that will provide a view of biomedically relevant DNA variations ...

TWENTY YEARS ago, on June 26th 2000, those running the public Human Genome Project and its private-sector shadow, a firm called Celera Genomics, decided to declare victory. In a simultaneous ...

Completion of the Human Genome Project was a huge milestone, but there’s more work to do to ensure equitable access to the information in our DNA.

The publication of the detailed structure of 99 percent of the human genome on April 14 is the culmination of one of the largest scientific undertakings in history. Initiated in 1990, the Human ...

Launching the Human Genome Project As early as the 1980s, momentum was gathering behind activities that supported, and would eventually define, the Human Genome Project.

A bold attempt to tell the complicated story behind the human DNA sequence highlights that social change is needed before personalized medicine can take off, finds Jan Witkowski.

Thirteen years after its launch as the most ambitious biomedical research project ever undertaken, the Human Genome Project yesterday was declared officially complete, having revealed in exquisite ...
