Personal genomics is a genomics field to popularize the technology to common people. The main goal of personal genomics is to sequence as many people as possible to do a very large scale comparative genomics analysis. Once a great number of 3 billion bases of individuals are collected, human genetic diversity will be completely mapped. This will lead to personal medicine.

There have been several major advocates of this genomics subfield. George Church group in Harvard Medical School has been active in this area in the USA.
