The Human Genome Project, 3D Animation

A dynamic 3D computer animated video takes you “inside” for a close-up look at how we’re made. Watch as the mysteries of the Human Genome are literally “unraveled.” 3D modeling and animation created by Bill Baker, Bakedmedia, Inc. and Mike Fisher for the National Human Genome Research Institute. As public domain media, the animation is free to use. Please use the following credit: Courtesy: National Human Genome Research Institute. 3D animation by Bill Baker, Bakedmedia and Mike Fisher.
Video Rating: 4 / 5

    How can this knowledge be used to cure dementia which is going to be pandemic in 2016? When will we cure diabetes…another pandemic.

    Nice video, I have a Question…. is’t possible that a gene can pass memory from past generations, this is something that it is in my mind all the time… wish someone anzwer

  • RUSSKAYAG says:

    Recent studies show that positive emotion/thought such as love, joy, greatfulness and etc. effects human DNA by making the strands longer and more perceptive (meaning uncoding the hidden talents such as ESP, precognition, clairvoyance and others), when negative emotion such as fear, anger, despair and etc. makes DNA shrink, therefore limiting human perception a great deal. One has to establish an ongoing positive thought in order for these change to occur.

    The human genome project was an exercise in preparation for a patent defining humanity.
    Although many good things can come from a better understanding of such things, the opposite is also true. Consider the tight regulation on the use of seeds in the US. It’s virtually illegal to grow your own food. The international tax system on human use of carbon.
    This all amounts to the assertion of ‘ownership’ of the natural world, by codex alimentarius.
    And unless we wake up, we’ll be next.

    “50% of science is speculation.”
    retard says “what?”

  • Howie47 says:

    Or maybe you should read, “Probability’s Nature and Nature’s Probability: A Call to Scientific Integrity” “It was science, and not religion, that caused his disbelief in the explanatory powers of undirected nature.” by Dr. Donald E. Johson

  • Howie47 says:

    ” law of LARGE numbers”? I suppose your talking about numbers that exceed all the particles in the known Universe! Or with enough chances any thing is possible.
    The scientific tide is turning against Neo-Darwinism. New books on this subject. “What Darwin Got Wrong”, “Why Pigs Don’t Have Wings”, “In the Beginning”. etc. etc. etc.: Since scientist have no explanation how life could arise and evo to the present. Their BELIEF in common ancestry is purely philosophical in nature.

  • targettee says:

    dear @Howie47, recombination plus mutation and the law of LARGE numbers is what brings about novel “genes”.  Take the fact that the human genome is almost a complete subset of mouse genome. If you rearrange the mouse genome you get the human. It is near consensus among molecular biologist that ALL known life forms share a common ancestor, I’ve seen no evidence to suggest otherwise.

  • Howie47 says:

    Transposons are strings of genetic information, that are repositioned in single cells. Not genetically engineered novel threads of information. Novel strings of genetic information do not appear out of no where. Intelligible information is transferable, it never generates out of thin air.

  • targettee says:

    Dear Howie47,
    duped? Only Pre-existing genetic information?
    What about transposons or Gene duplication, the fact that our genomes are ever changing is a fact, sometimes our genomes gain sequences, sometimes they lose, and always are modifying them.

  • WillSKB88 says:

    “50% of science is speculation.”

    Who says? When did they say? Why did they say? All science? Some science?

    Too many questions to that percentage.

    Science works in paradigms and falsification – hypothesises are speculation based on reason, theories are factually based speculations that create rules and predictions – more hypothesises.

  • erlfie says:

    do you think your personal genome should be publicized? why?

  • Howie47 says:

    Genetic Inheritance is the result of different combinations of pre-existing genetic information. Except in the case of deformed genes (mutations) which results in inherited diseases and deformations. Any one that says that is where all the different families of plants and animals originated from, has been duped.

  • TemplarX2 says:

    Mutation only leads to genetic variation.

  • asdzx123 says:

    i totally agree! (:

  • WillSKB88 says:

    What’s the difference between these two opinions?

    One is speculation

    The other is science.

  • BAKEDMEDIAcom says:

    Cool! The video and education kit was distributed to thousands of schools nationwide. I hope it helped you understand the genome a bit more. I found one website that has a frame grab from the animation posted and its caption reads “actual photo of human cell”… you can’t get a better complement than that. Thanks again.

    i saw this in science class today

  • sammipooh says:

    Pursuit of the knowledge of science with the understanding of evolution make the concept of ID irrelevant. Stuff like ID and creationism is just giving up and saying you don’t understand and don’t intend to try to.

  • Tryambakam says:

    the designer is the environment, we are a complex series of chemical reactions that take place inside a water medium that responds to stimuli it receives from the environment, and adapts accordingly

  • Quentinsama says:

    no evolution just happens to adapt to an environment. Certain traits are being naturally selected for a better survival. Mutation though happens arbitrarily on approx. every 100k base pair in the human genome. Humans have no direction to greatness. It’s all a matter of the environment on which mutation depends or even evolution

  • Howie47 says:

    Arbitrary mutation does not equate too upward, more complex life. Just the opposite.
