Breakthrough in Human Genome
CNN is reporting that a press conference will be held Monday by both the Human Genome Project and Celera Genomics, Inc that a large breakthrough has happened in the sequencing of the human genome:
Some scientists have said this breakthrough -- which comes 10 years after the project was started -- is as significant as man walking on the moon. Experts believe the information provided by the genome projects will forever change the practice of medicine and the health care of human beings, by paving the way for new drugs and medical therapies.While I'm pretty ignorant about the science of most of this, it's quite an important thing nonetheless. And no, I don't know the status on the sequencing of the penguin genome.
