Scientists , including David Paten from the University of Cambridge , are working to create the first open - access genome graph , a single network of DNA sequences , to gain further insight into the human genome . The genome graph of the 1000 Genomes Project is intended to be made available to the public within a year , and it is intended to be more advanced than previous attempts at genome mapping , allowing for more accurate reading of genetic data and more storage of scientific , medical and other information . “ It will be used everywhere in a variety of ways we have n’t even imagined yet , ” said Paten .
