Abstract

In this chapter, a detailed account of the overwhelming success attributed to the Human Genome Sequencing Project was examined. Comparison was made of the quality of life indicators between the G8 nations and the other progressive developing nations, identifying the challenges involved in establishing viable genomic centers. Data for the scientific workforce in Brazil, China, and India and the frequencies of their information technology and bioengineering graduates will outpace those of G8 nations in the next few years. This trend could leapfrog some of the developing nations into the status of highly industrialized countries.
