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.
