The Human Genome Project, the international effort to decipher the blueprint of a human being.

Photos above show automated gene sequencing at The Center for Genome Research of The Whitehead Institute at MIT. The Whitehead Institute's Center for Genome Research is an international leader in the Human Genome Project (the effort to identify all of the DNA letters that make up the instructions for a human being). The Center is the largest public sequencing center in the world and part of the international consortium of 16 laboratories that comprise the Human Genome Project.
