The Human Geniome Project (HGP), according to the National Human Genome Research Institute, "was the international, collaborative research program whose goal was the complete mapping and understanding of all the genes of human beings. All our genes together are known as our "genome."  The first draft of the HGP was published in 2001, with a finding of over  20,000 human genes.
