  Blogging the Singularity — Authority: 130
  My dad used to say technology is advancing so quickly that, by the time a product reaches market, it is already obsolete. Moreover, if you wait just a little longer, you can pay a lot less. The sequencing of the human genome takes the advancement of technology, and its fast reduction in cost, to an entirely new level. ...

  John Timmer gives a great summary of the new paper in Science covering the Complete Genomics sequencing method. A surprising (to me, at least) fact: But, because each of these nanoballs was so small, its possible to do massive amounts of sequencing in parallel, simply by washing different solutions across ...

• Complete Genomics produces a cheap—well, $5,000—human genome

  
  Ars Technica — Authority: 754
  With the newest DNA sequencing technology starting to reach the market, were seeing a bit of a bifurcation. Some of the methods can do long reads, covering hundreds of bases, and provide data thats appropriate for assembling a genome thats never been sequenced before. Others produce lots of shorter reads, which can ...
