The 20th Anniversary of UCSC Publishing the first Human Genome

+

+July 7, 2020 marks the 20th anniversary of UCSC publishing the first-ever human Genome +on the Internet in 2020. This was the first time that the code for human life was +replicated and spread through computers instead of through biological means. +We are lucky to have some of the original publishers still with us at the Genome Browser. +Thank you, David Haussler and Jim Kent for your incredible effort pushing forward the field of human +genomics and open-source data sharing.

+

+For a timeline and pictures, please visit the + +Genomics Institute's article on the anniversary as well as this short video +commemorating the occasion:
