  • About Genomeboy

    I am in the Duke University Institute for Genome Sciences & Policy. In 2009 I had my entire genome sequenced. My book about all of this stuff (and more) is called Here is a Human Being: At the Dawn of Personal Genomics, published by HarperCollins in 2010. Find me on Twitter: @MishaAngrist.
