So, a lot of human genomes have been sequenced.
We start out with the, the NHGRI, National Institute for Human Genomic Research.
Where they sequenced several individuals in one shot.
Then we have several scientists who, who, have had their genome sequenced.
Jim Watson who was one of the to have his genome sequenced in 454.
S.J. Kim, who is a Korean scientist
and great inventor who is an American scientist.
And then different populations of humans were sequenced.
These African
gentlemen had their genome sequenced about 5 years ago.
And this opens up the, the possibility for understanding genetics.
Then what we start to see are indiv, individual genomes
being produced for people like George Church who's a scientist.
Dr. Lipsky, who's also a scientist, and some celebrities.
And then finally, we get a Neanderthal genome and a
[INAUDIBLE]
genome. genomes from fossils.
Now, all of this information is, is, overflow.
What we see in the blue line here is Moore's Law.
And this is a law that says computing power will double every 18 to 24 months.
This is the number of websites that, have grown, since the year 1990 to the present.
And this is what genomes are doing and if,
if we could draw this, it would go straight
up in the air as, many, many yards.
All of this information is making it very,
very difficult for researchers to handle the information.
And it's somewhat of a data overflow, but because the
data are so important for our health and our understanding
of, of, of our being humans the scientists who do
this are continuing with, with this research full speed ahead.
