Who won the human genome project?

When did stem cell research become known?

Canadian scientists in the 1960s. Followed by many national governments through their research agencies, like the NIH in the United States. And especially by Craig Venter in the early 21st Century. The possibilities for human, animal and plant health improvement were considered science fiction only 20 years ago.


Do you need a microbe to culture microbes?

Yes, because we are not yet able to synthesize them entirely. But, science is making great strides on that front in the second quarter of 2010. A group working with the scientist who mapped the human genome, Molecular biologist J. Craig Venter, has just successfully chemically created DNA in the lab, based on computer models, and then inserted it in a bacterium that was able to reproduce using the synthesized DNA. They were able to insert the synthetic Mycoplasma mycoides genome into Mycoplasma capricolum that no longer contained its DNA, and then got the organism to grow. This will be a huge step forward in our ability to create organisms that can potentially solve many of our medical and social problems. Production of synthetic biofuels is one of the areas that can be given a big push forward by this success, or even creation of organisms that can "eat" the oil in oil spills. It is estimated that the first such totally synthetic bacterium is only about five years off.
