DNA Quote of the Day: Dr. George Dimopoulos
by Dr. Hsien-Hsien Lei
Posted July 27, 2007 in DNA Quotes and Excerpts
Dr. George Dimopoulos in the Johns Hopkins Public Health Magazine feature – The Genetic Journey:
Genomics as we know it today did not exist 15 years ago. We did not have the complete DNA or genome sequences of organisms then. While the main challenge of the genomic era was to determine DNA sequences and predict genes, the challenge of the post-genomic era is to assign functions to all these genes; we now have to relate them to specific aspects of the disease and to understand what they are doing. It’s like you have a book with all these words in it, but now you have to read it and understand it.
