﻿Eight ﻿years ago, Goncalo Abecasis explained to a group of scientists that he would sequence more than 2,500 genomes from people all over the globe, thus﻿ began the Human Genome Project. Now with the project coming to a conclusion, it has sequenced 1,000 human genomes from 26 separate groups of people all around the world. This research has provided a pathway to thinking about more than just humans, but humanity.
