The Human Genome Meeting HGM is an annual event organized by the Human Genome Organization HUGO for scientists working on the human genome. This year s HGM was the tenth anniversary meeting with approximately 500 presentations covering a wide variety of work on the human genome. In his opening remarks the president of HUGO Yoshiyuki Sakaki RIKEN Genomic Sciences Center Yokohama Japan commented that participants would have plenty of opportunities to find out what is going on in the post human genome sequencing era . This report discusses a few of the latest research findings that were presented at the meeting. It is clear that large-scale sequencing facilities are still important and indeed essential for genome science. Richard Gibbs Baylor College of Medicine Houston USA reported that the genome sequencing projects of many animal species including the Rhesus macaque orangutan Tammar wallaby cow and the honeybee are ongoing and will soon provide us with valuable resources for the analysis of these organisms and for comparative genomics. He also reported that the phase I plan of the human HapMap project in which common single-nucleotide polymorphisms SNPs are covered at a resolution of 5 kilobases kb has now been completed. The completion of the human genome sequence and the progress of the HapMap project have facilitated genetic approaches to disease-associated genes and regions. Kari .
