Some certainties among the Manyquestions of the last 10 years about the primate genome
In 2000 the first draft of the human genome, what became known as our book of life, was presented. It generated high expectations for its potential applications to the benefit of the biological sciences. What happened 10 years later? We know how many genes we have in our genome and analyzed the func...
