How To Sequence The Human Genome

Your genome, every human’s genome, consists of a unique DNA sequence of A’s, T’s, C’s and G’s that tell your cells how to operate. Thanks to technological advances, scientists are now able to know the sequence of letters that makes up an individual genome relatively quickly and inexpensively.

    That was pretty cool Wes. I was at a conference in New Orleans where one of the speakers was a Geneticist. She says it takes 1000 people to make 1 person. So when you’re made, there’s dna from 1000 people dropping down to make you. It would be very interesting to see the genome of a Sasquatch.
