Why the human genome was never completed
- sp332 3y agoI thought they finished it last year? https://time.com/6163452/human-genome-fully-sequenced/ https://time.com/6163452/human-genome-fully-sequenced/
- Tozen 3y agoPer BBC article, this is the first time the human genome of a single person will be fully sequenced. The previous sequencing were of multiple people. The BBC title is also a bit misleading, if not a bit clickbait-ish, and debatably doesn't represent the story. They could have mentioned it was about the sequencing of an entire genome of a single human being or that humans have such diversity that you can't ever sequence everyone for a complete story.
