Blue flags in front of our hospital remind us of the need for #coloncancer screening. The 2nd leading cause of U.S. cancer deaths is also one of the most treatable. If you're 45 , have a family history, or have any symptoms, be sure to #GetScreened. #ColonCancerAwarenessMonth

20 years ago, the Human Genome Project was finalized -- yet two decades on we are still missing the genetic information of most of the planet. From the BBC's 'Beyond the Genome Series,' where we are with these genome gaps: bbc.com/future/article/20230… #BBCFuture #HumanGenomeProject

The search for the world's 'missing' genomes

Enormous strides have been made to unravel the secrets of the human genome, so why are we missing the genetic information of most of the planet?
