1990
the human genome project was a 13-year-long, publicly funded project initiated in 1990 with the objective of determining the dna sequence of the entire euchromatic human genome within 15 years. in may 1985, robert sinsheimer organized a workshop to discuss sequencing the human genome, but for a number of reasons the nih was uninterested in pursuing the proposal. the following march, the santa fe workshop was organized by charles delisi and david smith of the department of energy's office of health and environmental research (oher). at the same time renato dulbecco proposed whole genome sequencing in an essay in science. james watson followed two months later with a workshop held at the cold spring harbor laboratory.
human genome project
the human genome project originally aimed to map the nucleotides contained in a human haploid reference genome (more than three billion). the "genome" of any given individual is unique; mapping the "human genome" involved sequencing a small number of individuals and then assembling these together to get a complete sequence for each chromosome. therefore, the finished human genome is a mosaic, not representing any one individual.
