Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Technology in Oncology Drug Development

چکیده
Overview of NGS technology In the decade since the completion of the human genome project, DNA sequencing technology has changed considerably. The commercial availability of the first massively parallel pyrosequencing platform in 2005 led to a new era of high-throughput genomic analysis, now referred to as next-generation sequencing (NGS). NGS technologies use a fundamentally different approach to sequencing, in which samples are sequenced massively in parallel with everdecreasing costs promised to reach the $1000 genome mark this year.
