Researchers To Map Ozzy Osbourne’s Genome
A half-dozen jokes came to mind when I read this article but I’ll take the (ahem) high road and just say that this is interesting research and we are finally coming into a time where we can get a much better understanding of the human genome which will ultimately help us cure disease and other genetic related disorders. Will Keith Richards be next?
Ozzy Osbourne is about to join the ranks of a very fortunate (or unfortunate, depending on how you look at it) minority. DNA research lab Knome has announced that it is going to sequence the lead singer of Black Sabbath’s entire genome. Knome, — which focuses on DNA sequencing in the interest of disease research — has said that Ozzy’s “extreme” medical history (i.e., years of hard partying) makes him an ideal candidate for their purposes.
