      the Human Genome Project was a game-changer. It mapped out all the genes in human DNA, helping us understand what makes us tick. It’s key for finding causes of diseases, developing new treatments, and personalizing medicine to fit your unique genetic vibe. Plus, it’s opened doors for research in biology and biotech, paving the way for breakthroughs that could save lives. Keep exploring science, it’s shaping the future.

      It’s believed and proven that understanding the human genome including approximately 25,000 human genes is key in revolutionising personalized medicine, advancing scientific research in diseases (example breast cancer research), gene editing, drug and vaccine development. So the human genome project decoded the blueprint of human life and transformed biology, medicine, and biotechnology forever.
