presents an experiment done in the 1990s‚ called the Human Genome Project (Ghost in Your Genes). During this project‚ researchers were able to discover the chemical structure of each gene and overall they hoped to find a cure for all diseases‚ such as alzheimer’s and autism (Ghost in Your Genes). It was also found out that humans‚ surprisingly have the same number of genes as fish and mice and chimpanzees make up 98.9% of the human genome (Ghost in Your Genes). This question then pops up- how come

Prior to the completion of the federally-funded Human Genome Project in 2001‚ the field was usually referred to as "pharmacogenetics"a word coined in the 1950s. The term "pharmacogenomics" reflects the new knowledge base created by the Human Genome Project. The project deciphered the gene sequences of the genome - the entire human genetic complement that contains an estimated 35‚000 genes. THE FUTURE Pharmacogenomics represents

The human genome project‚ together with research on stem cells‚ will form the basis of most medical treatments in the next few decades. Before discussing this statement it is important to analyse each component. What is a genome? And why is it relevant to us? A genome is the building block of all living organisms‚ it consists of the mapping or instructions to how an organism functions‚ and it does this through the use of DNA and genes. Genes are a group of DNA; Genes hold instructions and information
