Pat gets a crazy-quilt no-prize for bringing us news that humans appear to be far more genetically variable than previously thought. The implications for the evolution of our species were not covered in the article, which primarily examined how the discovery affects research in genetic diseases. On that front, it's a bit of "good news, bad news"... while the discovery seems to make clear that genetic disorders are more complex than was once imagined, it also provides new avenues for treatment studies.
