| Google will start a new project mapping the human body. Baseline Study will collect anonymous genetic and molecular information from 175 people — and later thousands more — to create the fullest picture of what a healthy human being look like. Other mass medical and genomics studies exist. But Baseline will amass a larger and broader set of data. The hope is that this will help researchers detect killers such as heart disease and cancer earlier, pushing medicine more toward prevention rather than the treatment of illness. | |||||||
