Forty years after the first effort to extract mummy DNA, researchers have finally generated a full genome sequence from an ...

More than 20 years after the release of the first draft genome from the landmark Human Genome Project, researchers have published a draft human ‘pangenome’ — a snapshot of what is poised to ...

The first human genome was completed in April 2003, but it left behind some unknown gaps, including swathes of the Y chromosome. The chromosome’s repetition made it a challenge to reconstruct.

Scientists have pieced together a new draft of the human genome that better captures humanity’s genetic diversity. The new “pangenome” incorporates the DNA of 47 individuals from every ...

When the Human Genome Project launched in 1990, it was hailed as one of the greatest scientific endeavors of all time. The 13-year project identified about 20,000 genes and gave researchers a ...

A new, more diverse human genome offers hope for rare genetic diseases The first draft of the pangenome is based on the full genetic blueprints of 47 people from around the world Updated May 16 ...

Today, researchers announced yet another version of the human genome map, which combines the DNA of 47 diverse individuals—Africans, Native Americans, and Asians, among other groups—into one ...
