In that short time, the corpus of information has grown from two gappy and error-filled genome sequences to a full account of the genetic variation of hundreds of thousands of individuals around the world. https://go.nature.com/3jPFSz4 | Nature | Facebook

The Human Genome Project finished in 2003 with an almost “complete” first draft of the human genome sequence. It was about 95% complete — with over 150,000 gaps of DNA left to be sequenced. Scientists are closing these gaps, with only about 100 left! https://bit.ly/32sAXg0 | National Human Genome Research Institute
