I think that the idea of people wanting to steal your genome remains a little bit in the world of science fiction. It's a new technology, and it's new science that people are becoming familiar with. It's critical for us to do everything we can to enable the privacy level that people want.

American Scientist

Cory Booker

I respect and value the ideals of rugged individualism and self-reliance. But rugged individualism didn't defeat the British, it didn't get us to the moon, build our nation's highways, or map the human genome. We did that together. This is the high call of patriotism.

We're the first technology-creating species. We use technology to extend our reach. We didn't stay in the caves, and we haven't stayed on the planet. To play jazz with our genomes and the universe might ultimately be what we're all about.

American Director

Craig Venter

I thought we'd just sequence the genome once and that would be sufficient for most things in people's lifetimes. Now we're seeing how changeable and adaptable it is, which is why we're surviving and evolving as a species.

Sam Harris

Human experience depends on everything that can influence states of the human brain, ranging from changes in our genome to changes in the global economy.

American Author

Erez Lieberman Aiden

One of the central mysteries of biology is why the genome is largely identical from cell to cell, even though cells do different things.

American Mathematician

Bill Gates

Eventually we'll be able to sequence the human genome and replicate how nature did intelligence in a carbon-based system.

American Businessman

James D. Watson

I never dreamed that in my lifetime my own genome would be sequenced.

Barry Schuler

Living in your genome is the history of our species.

In biology class, 'genome' refers to all genetic content of an organism.

Use in Biology

'Genome' is often used when talking about scientific discoveries or medical research.

Scientific Research

Pair 'genome' with words like 'mapping' and 'sequencing' to discuss genetic analysis.

Collocation Usage

Use 'genome' in discussions about genetics for an academic or professional tone.

Academic Discussions

Mention 'genome' when talking about the DNA sequence that determines how an organism grows.

DNA Context

'Genome' is a technical term, so use it with people who have knowledge of genetics.

Technical Vocabulary

 which means they could affect an organism for its entire life. Sometimes that's a good thing. Epigenetic changes are part of normal development. The cells in an embryo start with one master genome. As the cells divide, some genes are activated and others inhibited.

What is epigenetics? -...

 without knowing the actual sequence. Using the overlapping bits as a guide, the researchers marked each fragment's place in the genome to create a contiguous map, a process that took about six years. The cloned fragments were sequenced in labs around the world

 can change throughout your life and throughout your body. So mitochondria are dynamic and, to a degree, independent, but they’re also shaped by their us. We think that long ago, some of their genes were transferred to their host’s genomes.

 HIV is a retrovirus, which means it can write its genetic code into the genome of infected cells, co-opting them into making more copies of itself. During the first stage of HIV infection, the virus replicates within helper T cells,

Why it’s so hard to cure...

 brace the revelation of the first draft of the human book of life but the reality is there is no single human book of life there is no single human genome so here we are 14 years later still missing genetic data from all parts of

The United Genomes...

 And as soon as we had these two sequences we thought, if this is supposed to be the smallest genome of a self-replicating species, could there be even a smaller genome? Could we understand the basis of cellular life

Craig Venter unveils...

 allows scientists to directly change the human genome to stop undesirable processes or make helpful substances. An example of an unwanted process is what happens when our bodies are exposed to ionizing radiation.

Could we survive...

 and also they save us money. So again, that's the first blessing. Bats are important for our ecosystems. And what about the second? What about health? Inside every cell in your body lies your genome.
