Telindus helps the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute to decode the book of life
When the Human Genome Project (HGP) began in 1990, it was a controversial and challenging goal. Aiming to analyse and sequence all the DNA in human chromosomes was no mean feat, considering the DNA in a human body would reach to the sun and back over 600 times if put end-to-end. But the work of The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, one of the world’s leading genome research centres, is helping the project to fi nish ahead of schedule, revealing a vast amount of information about how the human body works and ultimately how to combat illnesses from Alzheimer’s disease and AIDS to malaria and tuberculosis.
