The human genome sequence mapping led to an historic White House press conference. The leaders of this epic effort, Francis Collins, Craig Venter, Eric Lander, John Sulson and Sydney Brenner, explain how it was done and what is revealed about our book of life. To illustrate this, Chromosome 7 is examined and the fascinating Williams Syndrome.
