摘要
The recent crop of results from genome-wide association studies might seem like a sudden development. However, this blooming follows a long germination period during which the necessary concepts, resources and techniques were developed and assembled. Here, I look back at how the necessary pieces fell into place, focusing on the less well-chronicled days before the launch of the HapMap project, and speculate about future developments.
