'''The Korean Genome Project ('''[http://koreangenome.org/Korean_Genome_Project Korean Genome Project - Koreangenome.org])
The Korean Genome Project (KGP) is the national scale personal genome project that was initiated in 2005<br/> by KOBIC, KRIBB. KGP includes subprojects. The first is the Korean Personal Genome Project (KPGP).<br/> KPGP is an independent personal genome project from the Personal Genome Project (PGP) of <br/> George Church at Harvard. However, KPGP accommodates as many principles as possible from PGP.<br/> Another KGP project is Genome Korea which was initiated by Ulsan City and UNIST since 2014.<br/> Genome Korea aims to collect Korean human genome sequences accompanied by clinical information<br/> in phases. The first phase is 10,000 Korean samples. The aim of Genome Korea is to build standard references<br/> of Korean genome and variome.<br/> <br/>
Launched 2010:
Goal: sequencing 50,000,000 Koreans. I.e, every Korean on Earth.
Status: 100 openly available sequences.
