title: Neuroscience in the post-genome era: an overview.
abstract: Although sequencing of the human genome has been taking place in rapidly accelerating fashion for years, the presentation of the entire sequence (to a first approximation, anyway) has now permitted a global view of its structure. The completion of the sequence has therefore invited all manner of aesthetic, philosophical, societal - as well as biological - discussions of its implications. This global view of the genome will undoubtedly forever change the face of biology. But how? Here are a few perspectives from the point of view of neuroscience.
