Aaron Streets co-authors papers of first complete, gapless human genome sequence

After 20 years since scientists first announced the “complete” sequence of the human genome, the last 8% of the missing gaps have finally been filled. The newly completed genome, dubbed T2T-CHM13, represents a major upgrade from the current reference genome, called GRCh38, which is used by doctors when searching for mutations linked to disease, as well as by scientists looking at the evolution of human genetic variation. Professor Aaron Streets co-authors several papers detailing the research process and findings of the complete sequence.
