摘要

The goal of the 1000 Genomes Project is to find most of the variants in the human genome that have a frequency of at least 1% in the populations studied. The consortium of researchers participating in the project now reports the results of its pilot phase (page 1061 of this issue). But first let's take a step back. A decade ago, the reference copy of the human genome was sequenced. Although that project is undoubtedly one of the greatest scientific achievements of our time, its potential societal impact will be fully realized only if genomic regions that are responsible for various traits of medical importance, such as response to a drug or susceptibility to a disease, can be identified. After the initial sequencing of the human genome, therefore, a second phase of human genomics emerged, focusing on identifying genomic variations responsible for hereditary diseases and other medically relevant traits.
