The whole world realised the power of RNA when the Covid-19 pandemic brought us the first mRNA-based vaccines. Decoding ‘junk DNA’ The Human Genome Project and subsequent studies discovered that most of our DNA (approximately 98%) does not actually code for proteins, with humans having approximately 20,000 tox 25,000 protein-coding genes.

Analysing almost eight thousand tumours across 33 different cancers, researchers say this marks the first time that a framework was created to understand the role of internal factors in driving such genomic alterations. Genomic research have greatly expanded our understanding of disease pathophysiology over the years.
