theawl.com — “It took us ten years and $3 billion to map the human genome, and when the first working draft appeared in 2000, it came with lots of predictions: We were going to crack the genetic code for disease, predict heart attacks and cure cancer. Twelve years later, that isn't how it worked out. Instead of dramatic scientific breakthroughs, the most successful outgrowth has been a crop of VC-fueled personal genetics companies. The concept is simple: for a fee, they’ll tell you everything science kno” View full resource at theawl.com
