Today, 02 December 2024, marks the 25th anniversary of researchers at the Human Genome Project announcing the first complete DNA sequencing of an entire human chromosome.   Ever since that achievement, scientists, governments, and the life sciences industry, have continued to place emphasis on the potential for genomics to revolutionise the prevention and treatment of diseases, along with myriad other uses.   In our latest blog to mark the anniversary, PG Associate Abraham Darby-Zaier explores how genomics is being used today, and what the next 25 years may have in store as well as the risks and legal challenges innovators may face in the process.   Read the full blog here: https://lnkd.in/eN7TvKMX   Find out more about our work in the life science sector, here: https://lnkd.in/e9dWKfHK   #IP #patents #genomics #genomictechnology
