Since the mapping of the human genome in 2003, synthetic biology has reached a new milestone. British researchers are now ...

Today, genomics is saving countless lives and even entire species, thanks in large part to a commitment to collaborative and ...

On April 14 2003, scientists announced the end to one of the most remarkable achievements in history: the first (nearly) complete sequencing of a human genome. It was the culmination of a decade ...

And in 2021, the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium, an international consortium of scientists working to complete a human genome assembly from end to end, announced that all remaining gaps ...

A £10 million Wellcome Trust-funded project seeks to create artificial human genomes. Technology Networks explored the ...

13-year project designed as a human mosaic rests largely on a single volunteer. Five takeaways from Undark's report on a major scientific achievement.

It's not completely complete, and perhaps never will be. But the version of the human genome sequence that opened for business yesterday (April 14) at the University of California-Santa Cruz is so ...

No human genome has ever been read in its entirety before. This year, scientists expect to pass that milestone for the first time.

The NIH archives of the Human Genome Project could fall victim to Trump administration cuts, writes a former archivist.

Filling in millions of blanks The new techniques added more than 30 million base pairs missing from the current Human Genome Project, for a grand total of 62,460,029 base pairs in the Y chromosome.

The answer, after the usual political haggling, was the Human Genome Project (HGP), an American initiative globalised through the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium of 20 ...

It has been 20 years since the Human Genome Project was "completed". But it quickly became apparent that the efforts to sequence and map the human "book of life" was only just the beginning.
