Taken together, the data we gathered presents the earliest evidence for human activity in the Olduvai Gorge: about 2 million years ago. It also shows that early humans used tools and great diversity of habitats as they adjusted to constant change.

Our findings match multiple lines of evidence from archaeological sites on the reason why young humans chose to hunt and gather in this range. It really brought into context the importance of changing ecosystems.

From the 1G geology to digging sites, we've learned a lot about the functionality of our DNA, but we still have a lot more to learn about the size of our genome. Fortunately , the human genome has had several years to develop and proliferate.

The entire genomics movement brings modern genomic profiling to health care. Clinicians are offering whole genome sequencing and research efforts are ongoing to understand the features and functions of multiple complex genes. We're not there yet, but we've been making biological discoveries about DNA and its functions that are pretty fundamental to understand how these organisms evolve.

How long before we will understand more about the role that our genome plays in human longevity, the capacity to find roots through DNA and the ability to track the evolution of infections? It is likely that as this progress is made, it will draw the scientific community into a deeper exploration of these questions. The genetics of disease not only holds insights for human health, but also for disease and survival in complex environments where we search for food. Every generation strengthens these lines of investigation.

My work presenting at CIDE is developing a system for sequencing 1,600 exomes sequences. Many of the common approaches are experimental data collection; however, the prevalence of false positive disease signals comes from non-progressive sequencing (or high-quality biomarker sequencing, GCGC, or BBGC.) A large project funded by the NIA (Project Prometheus) has just completed a large-scale GCGC effort, in which we have identified 912 genes differentially expressed in CD4+ rather than CD8+ cell-mediated, major human leukocyte lymphocyte subtype, staphylococcus aureus. Gene regulatory enrichment analysis (Grant ADO1DC019391) showed greater gene expression in CD4+ versus CD8+ derived cells with elevated gene expression features and agrees with our reported results.

Interestingly, a number seem to differentiate between CD4+ and CD8+ cell derived cells. I am currently working to amplify more genomes with this approach to truly understand the regulatory correlates between CD8+ and CD4+ cell derived cells.
