The article states it was about time to update the female side of things after successfully sequencing 4 males...we all know the female side of things is just a big more complicated...BD
Dutch scientists said they have completed the first sequencing of an individual woman's DNA.
The researchers at Leiden University Medical Centre said they have sequenced the entire genome of one their researchers, geneticist Marjolein Kriek, and plan to publish it after review.
The first sequencing of a composite human genome was announced in 2001, followed by the first individual DNA sequencing in 2007.
In all, four individual male genomes have been sequenced - including that of James Watson, credited with first describing the structure of DNA in 1953 along with Francis Crick.
