Milestones in the Human Genome Project: genesis to postgenome
Med J Aust.
2000 Dec.
Abstract
The Human Genome Project (HGP) will change medicine and medical research irrevocably. The obvious gains in genetic knowledge from the HGP, together with the advances which will flow into bioinformatics, biotechnology and the potential for novel therapeutic agents, will ensure that the financial investment in the HGP is repaid many times over. The HGP's costs in terms of ethical and social issues remain to be determined, but it is to be hoped that these will not detract from the scientific and medical achievements. How did such an endeavour start, and what path did it follow?
