Overview

Why this framework exists

The Comparative Genomics Framework involves comparing the genomes of different species to understand the genetic basis of traits and diseases. This framework is crucial for understanding the evolution of species and developing new treatments for diseases. By comparing the genomes of different species, researchers can identify genes and genetic variants associated with specific traits and diseases.
