When the first human genome was sequenced, the whole project was estimated to have cost some 3 billion dollars and took over 13 years. Now, with massively parallel Next Generation Sequencing it is possible to sequence the human genome in less than 24 hours at a cost of under $1,000. With a rapid decline in sequencing costs, both the number of applications and the amount of data produced have boomed, driving a revolution in medicine. However, with the advent of new enabling technologies, what is next? What are the new and exciting technologies in the sequencing space which will be truly disruptive in the future? And what technical innovation is required to bring these technologies to the mainstream user or even the clinic?
In this episode of Invent: Life Sciences, we explore the race to innovate in the sequencing arena, what’s happened so far, and what’s going to happen next.
