The Human Genome Project had a very negative effect due to development in technology and academic rivalry. With knowledge came bitter rivalry and with technology came the tendency to become God. These angles greatly created negative impact about this project. The experts tried to create human clones, tissue engineering etc. The scientists tried to analyze a person and get rid of any future disease that might attack them. Some people feel this is good while others feel that it is like distorting the natural process.
