Thirty years on from the launch of the Human Genome Project, Richard Gibbs reflects on the promises that this voyage of discovery bore. He developed basic methods for DNA and mutation ana lysis and was an early contributor to the Human Genome Project (HGP), leading one of five sites that generated the majority of the sequence. The power of advances in genomics and computers was revealed in the spectacular series of post-HGP projects that were of comparable scale. Some still tally the success of the HGP from lists of new drugs or therapies and argue that world-changing examples in biology, such as the spectacular advances of gene editing tools or the expansion of cancer therapeutics through targeted immunotherapy, are largely based on microbial, cellular and animal studies rather than genomics.	./cache/cord-348059-wa1gjbck.txt	./txt/cord-348059-wa1gjbck.txt
