Van Leeuwenhoek and the microscopy
In 1676 his credibility was questioned when he sent the Royal Society a copy of his first observations of microscopic single celled organisms. Heretofore, the existence of single celled organisms was entirely unknown … The Royal Society arranged to send an English vicar, as well as a team of respected jurists and doctors to Delft, Holland to determine whether it was in fact Van Leeuwenhoek's ability to observe and reason clearly (wikipedia)

Human Genome Project Milestones
2001: la culminación del proyecto
What’s past is prologue
• Shakespeare, The Tempest
• 2008: Major genome centers can sequence the same number of base pairs every 4 days
• 1000 Genome project launched
• World-wide capacity dramatically increasing
Further Evolution of Large-scale Genome Sequencing
• 2000: Human genome working drafts
• Data unit of approximately 10x coverage of human– 10 years and cost about $3 billion
• 2009: Every 4 hours ($25,000)
• 2010: Every 14 minutes ($5,000)
• Illumina HiSeq2000 machine produces 200 gigabases per 8 day run (BGI have ordered have 128)

in summary
Biology is transitioning (at least partially)
from an “analytic” science: the real world
is disected in its elemental components in order to be comprehended
to “syntetic” science: the challenge is
the integration of globlal information on the living cell/individual/population/(eco)sytem.
From analytic to syntetic
Biology, a science in which the effort has traditionally been directed towards data aquisition has become in a very short time a discipline in which the data is obtained with almost no human intervention, and the effort is turning towards data analysis.
