But he does not see this as the 'next-next' generation system to deliver the coveted $1,000 genome. “I do not think our method is something that you will be able to put in a box for $50,000 in ...

The pivotal leap in genome technology that helped lead to the $1,000 genome was in 2014, when improvements were made across the sequencing chain. Enhancements in the chemistry, imaging ...

And with the cost of genome sequencing falling rapidly, with quotes for the $1,000 genome dropping to just $100 within a year or two, it's definitely doable. "If we take the example of GPS ...

Its benchtop sequencer can sequence a human genome in one day, at a cost of just $1,000 per genome. Its desktop gene-sequencing machines costs $50,000, about a 10th as much as other machines.
