In four decades, genomics has transformed the biological sciences and has penetrated well beyond them. The marriage of DNA sequencing techniques and computational infrastructures built to handle, store and anal
yse ever-increasing quantities of data has contributed to significant developments in:
• Our understanding of human history through our relationship to Neanderthals, Denisovans and other hominids (Pääbo, 2014);
• Our appreciation of the extent and diversity of life previously undetected by biological methods (Riesenfeld et al., 2004; Venter et al., 2004);
• Forensic science, food tracing and nature conservation (Arenas et al., 2017);
• Our picture of the Tree of Life and the evolutionary relationships within it (O’Malley et al., 2010);
• The reclassification of diseases resulting in improved diagnosis, prognosis and treatment options (Keating et al., 2016);
• Enhancements in the efficacy of selective breeding in agriculture (Lowe & Bruce, 2019);
• The reshaping of the fundamental models and metaphors with which we think about how living things develop and function (Keller, 2000).
