The future of DNA sequencing

Next Generation DNA Sequencing and the Future of Genomic Medicine

In the years since the first complete human genome sequence was reported, there has been a rapid development of technologies to facilitate high-throughput sequence analysis of DNA (termed "next-generation" sequencing). These novel approaches to DNA sequencing offer the promise of complete genomic analysis at a cost feasible for routine clinical diagnostics. However, the ability to more thorough...

A glimpse into past, present, and future DNA sequencing.

Current advances in DNA sequencing technologies are dropping down sequencing cost while increasing throughput at a pace never shown before. Past-decade great milestones, as the establishment of a reference human genome (amongst others) and large-scale human genetic variation study in the 1000 Genome project are, in conjunction with the use of these techniques, triggering advances in many areas ...

revolution of dna sequencing method from the past until today

dna sequence determination is a tremendous human achievement. dna sequencing includes several methods and technologies in use for determining the order of the nucleotide bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) in a molecule of dna. knowledge of dna sequences has become indispensable for basic biological research, other research branches utilizing dna sequencing, and in numerous applied ...

DNA sequencing: clinical applications of new DNA sequencing technologies.

We are in a time of great change in genetics that may dramatically impact human biology and medicine. The completion of the human genome project,1,2 the development of low-cost, high-throughput parallel sequencing technology, and large-scale studies of genetic variation3 have provided a rich set of techniques and data for the study of genetic disease risk, treatment response, population diversi...
