Abstract:
The Human Genome Project is now very well advanced, and millions of dollars have been spent on research in this area. Now that the initial problems relating to generating sequence information have been addressed, attention is turning to the issues of analyzing the data, amassed on an unprecedented scale. Computing tools have become ever more powerful, and the development of databases and software to process, analyze and store huge amounts of data have been rapid. In the next decade, a representative human genome sequence will have been determined, and in the following decades the function of t.
