How many genes do people have?

The amount of genes we have is considered an estimation. They used to believe it was around or above 100,000. Then when the human genome project (HGP) was completed in 2003 their estimation brought it down to 20,000 to 25,000. You can find their current work at "national human genome research institute" and also a free public database.
