The goal there was to represent all of the genetic information that describes us as humans, and that was to help us identify base by base, meaning things that could help us understand human histories, information that could help us understand human disease.
Have you ever wondered what makes us who we are, right down to our DNA? In this enlightening episode of 'American Medicine Today', Karen Hayden Miga, a key researcher in the monumental Human Genome Project, takes us on a fascinating journey through one of the greatest scientific achievements in history. The project, which spanned over a decade, aimed to map out all the genetic information that defines us as humans.
But what does that mean for our understanding of human history and disease? Miga breaks it down, explaining how this complete view of the human genome holds immense promise for the future of medicine. She touches on whole genome association studies and the importance of broadening these studies to identify disease-related genetic variants.
Whether you're a science enthusiast or just curious about how our genes influence our health, this episode offers a deep dive into the potential therapeutic outcomes that could transform medical practices. Don't miss this chance to learn about the groundbreaking research that could shape the future of healthcare.
