The first complete draft of the human genome was published back in 2003. Since then, researchers have worked both to improve the accuracy of human genetic data, and to expand its diversity, looking at ...

As if sequencing a full human genome wasn't tricky enough, scientists are now attempting to reconstruct our species' genetic material from the ground up. It's an ambitious and controversial project ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature. A major milestone has been reached, with experts across Europe, ...

July 2025 will mark the 25th anniversary of the UC Santa Cruz Genome Browser, one of the most widely used resources for genomics worldwide. Originally built to allow researchers to explore a single ...

Vast swathes of the human genome remain a mystery to science. A new AI from Google DeepMind is helping researchers understand how these stretches of DNA impact the activity of other genes. While the ...

NIH funding has allowed scientists to see the DNA blueprints of human life—completely. In 2022, the Telomere-to-Telomere Consortium, a group of NIH-funded scientists from research institutions around ...

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the publication of the Human Genome Project, a monumental scientific achievement that has transformed healthcare and laid the foundation for modern genomics.

New technological advancements have allowed us to look at the entire human genome. The genome is the complete set of genetic information encoded in the DNA. Human DNA has around three billion letters ...
