The Human Pangenum Project Is a New Approach to Genomic Medicine

The human pan genom projects is a 30 million dollar effort funded by the us. National human genome research institute. The initial goal is to do detailed, reference quality genom sequencing of about 350 people from different backgrounds and to share those data as freely as possible. Some geneticists focused on the needs of indigenous communities are wary of the initiative. They say that marginalized groups deserve control of their genetic data and of the sequences too.
