ANSWER: The completion of the Human Genome Project

EXPLANATION:

Human Genome Project (HGP) was completed in April, 2003. Genome varies from one individual to another.

In the view of this concern, the United States in 1996 passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) which guides against the non-consensual and unauthorized release of health information of individuals.
