Answer:

The Human Genome Project was an international research effort to determine the sequence of the human genome and identify the genes that it contains. The Project was coordinated by the National Institutes of Health and the U.S. Department of Energy. Additional contributors included universities across the United States and international partners in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, and China. The Human Genome Project formally began in 1990 and was completed in 2003, 2 years ahead of its original schedule.

The work of the Human Genome Project has allowed researchers to begin to understand the blueprint for building a person. As researchers learn more about the functions of genes and proteins, this knowledge will have a major impact in the fields of medicine, biotechnology, and the life sciences.

The goal of the International HapMap Project (International HapMap Consortium 2005) is to map and understand the patterns of common genetic diversity in the human genome in order to accelerate the search for the genetic causes of human disease. The first major milestone of the project was the genotyping of 1.1 million SNPs across four populations, a goal reached in the spring of 2005. Another 4.6 million SNPs are being genotyped in the second phase of the project, and are scheduled for completion in fall 2005.
