The Genome Arc - A Database to Store Genetic Code for All Species
1:38:07 - 1:49:07 (10:59)
The Genome Arc database has been created to store the genetic code for all species, with complete genome assemblies for use in basic science and future genome-wide association studies. It has been funded by agencies and private foundations, including those interested in conservation and the resurrection of extinct species such as the woolly mammoth.

Summary
Exercise not only benefits physical health but also cognitive health by controlling the brain circuits. Long, slow runs or practicing speech and singing can keep cognitive circuits in tune, according to personal experience.

Scientists use comparative genomics to compare genomes across different species to find out genetic changes associated with traits of interest.
1:39:21 - 1:44:33 (05:11)
Summary
Scientists use comparative genomics to compare genomes across different species to find out genetic changes associated with traits of interest. For instance, computer scientists led by Adam Philippi have produced the first human telomere-to-telomere genome with no errors.

Summary
A neuroscientist has begun producing high quality genome data of endangered species to be used by conservation funding agencies or private foundations, such as Revive and Restore or Colossal, who are interested in resurrecting extinct species. The database called Genome Arc stores the genetic code for all species, in anticipation for future scientific and conservation projects.

The evolution of dark or light skin color among humans has occurred independently multiple times, based on the angle of light hitting the earth, and genes involved in melanin formation evolved some of the same mutations across different species.
