> The Human Genome Project essentially handed us the keys to euchromatin, the majority of the human genome, which is rich in genes, loosely packaged, and busy making RNA

> Jarvis and Formenti hope that their contribution will not only help tie a bow on the Human Genome Project, but also inform research into diseases linked to the heterochromatic genome—chief among them cancer

So the TL;DR or ELI5 version of this is this completion can help fight cancer. Had to wade through this article to get as to why we would want a complete sequencing. Any other non-obvious things we can do after this? Like perhaps life extension or other diseases we can cure?
