It's not like we're a bunch of science geeks or something.

The last fifty years of biology research probably represent mankinds greates acheivement so far. Going from the structure of DNA to the complete human genome in 50 years is really impressive.

But the sequencing of genomes marks a revolution for bilogy and mankind. It is driving the development of high throughput methods for identifying when proteins are expressed and how they interact with themsleves and other ligands. The future is here.

I almost posted it the other day but then I figured that you and I would be the only two on the board who would be interested. It was quite sad news.
