    National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), announced today that the Large-Scale Sequencing Research Network will begin sequencing 12 more strategically selected organisms, including the marmoset, a skate and several important insects, as part of its ongoing effort to expand understanding of the human genome.

  • the human genome researchers announced the completion of the Dna sequence for the last 24 human chromosomes.

  • A team led by Craig Venter publish his complete Dna sequence, unveiling the sixth billion nucleotide genome of a single individual for the first time.

  • An international research team announces the 1000 genomes project. an ambitious effort that will involve sequencing the genomes of at least a thousand people from around the world to create the most detailed and medically useful picture to date of human g

  • Many scientists believe the work will lead to new treatments for life-threatening diseases such as cancer, and possibly mental disorders such as schizophrenia.

  • Researchers have produced the first whole genome sequence of the 3 billion letters in the neanderthal genomeand the initial analysis suggests that up to 2 percent of the DNA in the genome of present-day humans outside of Africa originated in Neanderthals

  • The researchers debate wether the genome project will help humans.

  • As of 2012, thousands of human genomes have been completely sequenced.
