Scientists on May 10 (2023) unveiled the first draft of a human "pangenome", a more diverse and accurate DNA blueprint for our species that they hope will help shed light on a range of diseases.
The announcement was hailed by researchers as a major scientific milestone that "heralds a new age of genetic diagnosis".
