Benjamin Carr, Ph.D. 👨🏻💻🧬J. #CraigVenter, Scientist Who Decoded the #Human #Genome, Dies at 79
A risk-taking outsider, he brought speed, competition and controversy to one of science’s biggest races.
Dr. #Venter, a risk-taker and intense competitor, made a bold move when he decided that the #HumanGenomeProject, a $3 billion government program for decoding the human genome, was moving slowly enough that he could enter the race late and beat it with a much faster method.

The #HumanGenomeProject determined the base pairs of human DNA, mapping and sequencing our genetic code 🧬

Ryoji Ikeda’s data-verse is an immersive #audiovisual trilogy considered his ultimate project, created by transforming vast scientific datasets into complex visual and sonic experiences.
It consists of three synchronized high-definition video projections with minimalist electronic soundtracks, exploring data from sources like #NASA, #CERN, and the #HumanGenomeProject.

Do you remember #HumanGenomeProject? I’m not sure Trump admin wants you to
It was one of the top #science, technology, and #medicine stories of the 1990s and early 2000s; at the time, the press often compared it to the 1969 Apollo moon landing.
He used to maintain the #NIH’s #HGP archives. Now he doesn’t know what will happen to them. arAhival records detailing much of these events are under threat due to efforts by the Trump administration.
