You, my friend, are what scientists call a "holobiont"- an organism made up of human cells and the multiplicity of microscopic species living inside you and on your body.

MSK researchers are helping to map the landscape of viruses that infect us all, and to analyze the impact they have on human health and disease.

Since it began in 1990, the Human Genome Project is estimated to have cost $3,000,000,000. The entire human genome requires three gigabytes of computer data storage space. (One million base pairs ...

Protein-coding versus noncoding genes When deciding the number of genes in the human genome, Human Genome Project researchers initially counted protein-coding genes—regions of chromosomal DNA that are ...
