CHARTING THE GENOMIC LANDSCAPE
Ricki Lewis | Mar 1, 2004 | 5 min read
To appreciate a natural wonder such as a mountain range or a canal system on Mars, an observer must stand back. So it is with the human genome. As annotation progresses, some researchers are stepping back to better see patterns within the sequence. In addition to offering clues about humanity's biology and origins, the research generates positive feedback where discoveries fueled by the sequence enable researchers to refine annotation.The human genome sequence is providing a broader, aerial view

Tom Sargent remembers the day a student in his lab forgot to add boiling chips to phenol before firing up the heater on the distillation apparatus, and the panicked shouting and tearing off of the lab coat, goggles, gloves, and shoes that ensued when the phenol superheated and boiled over. "Fortunately he wasn't hurt," said Sargent, now chief of the section on vertebrate development at the National Institute of Child and Human Development, "but what a mess." Then, there was the time he hooked up
