Human lead completion genome project outcomes mapping number

The Human Genome Project has led to mapping, screening, improved medicine, and insights into human ancestry and evolution.

El Proyecto Genoma Humano ha permitido mapear, seleccionar, mejorar la medicina y comprender la ascendencia humana.

Text	The completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003 lead to many outcomes: Mapping – The number, location, size and sequence of human genes is now established Screening – This has allowed for the production of specific gene probes to detect sufferers and carriers of genetic diseases Medicine – The discovery of new proteins have lead to improved treatments (pharmacogenetics and rational drug design) Ancestry – Comparisons with other genomes have provided insight into the origins, evolution and migratory patterns of man
