U.S. researchers have been slow to perform the genetic sequencing that will help clarify the situation
He has been a fixture in San Diego science for decades
Twenty years ago, President Bill Clinton announced completion of what was arguably one of the greatest advances of the modern era: the first draft sequence of the human genome.
The human genome is 99% decoded, the American geneticist Craig Venter announced two decades ago. What has the deciphering brought us since then?
