Interviewee: Ewan Birney Human Genome Project and the future.

It's trite to say it, but it is the start. It's finding the edge around the end of, around the sides of the jigsaw. We still have the rest of the jigsaw to put together and there are millions upon millions of different pieces of information that we've got to piece together to really understand it. It's going to take hundreds of years, I think, to get a deep understanding of it. And I'm just excited being in a position to keep on building over the next year, the next five years, the next ten or twenty years.
