Grand Celebration by Pabulo H Rampelotto
In 1990, scientists began working together on one of the largest biological research projects
ever proposed. The project proposed to sequence the three billion nucleotides in the human
genome. The Human Genome Project took 13 years and was completed in April 2003, at a
cost of approximately three billion dollars. It was a major scientific achievement that forever
changed the understanding of our own nature. The sequencing of the human genome was in
many ways a triumph for technology as much as it was for science. From the Human Genome
Project, powerful technologies have been developed (e.g., microarrays and next generation
sequencing) and new branches of science have emerged (e.g., functional genomics and
pharmacogenomics), paving new ways for advancing genomic research and medical
applications of genomics in the 21st century. The investigations have provided new tests and
drug targets, as well as insights into the basis of human development and diagnosis/treatment
of cancer and several mysterious humans diseases. This genomic revolution is prompting a
new era in medicine, which brings both challenges and opportunities. Parallel to the
promising advances over the last decade, the study of the human genome has also revealed
how complicated human biology is, and how much remains to be understood. The legacy of
the understanding of our genome has just begun. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the
essential completion of the Human Genome Project, in April 2013 Genes launched this
Special Issue, which highlights the recent scientific breakthroughs in human genomics, with a
collection of papers written by authors who are leading experts in the field.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
