Beyond the Human Genome Project

We recently talked about the Royal Society podcasts. So just an update here. Check out Beyond the human genome project by Eric Lander. It's listed under Chemistry & Biology, but I can't link directly to the video.

I've had some really positive feedback on this one. The lecture provides insight into the breakthroughs in DNA sequencing and the possibilities for the future.

Sounds like biology students are going to have some very interesting years ahead of them in fighting the some of the worst diseases we face.
