Peter,
This is highly significant. 60,000 SNPs is a large enough number to create a SNP map and would be valuable to big pharma. How in the word did they get there first. Genset has been working on this for 2 years and rumor isthey are not even at 50,000 yet. INCY by all accounts is not there yet.

Peter, in the For What Its Worth department... was at the Biogen annual meeting and Curagen was a subject of discussion because of the investment the company has made in Curagen. Not surprisingly, executives and scientists are apparently very high on Curagen - their science was supposed to be excellent and their scientists apparently very easy to collaborate with.

Never gave CRGN any thought. There are lots of SNPs out there and new ones forming every day. Plenty to go around. In general though, I am very pro genomics in any form.
