Humans have altered the genomes of species for thousands of years through artificial selection. Over the last half century scientists made profound technological progress to improve natures crops and mammals through genetic modifications. At the start of the twenty-first century science mapped the entire human genome and so began humanity’s journey to genetically modify ourselves.
