According to the article, the company is sequencing and comparing DNA to explore the role of genetics in obesity and intelligence as of March 2013. The BGI employee Zhao Bowen is mentioned along with BGI's president Wang Jian.LARSONCHRISTINA...
Genetic testing is routine practice for individuals with unexplained developmental disabilities and multiple congenital anomalies. However, current testing pathways can be costly and time consuming, and the diagnostic yield low. Genome-wide sequencing, i
With human whole-genome sequencing (WGS), “basic analysis would cover the known variants of the 59 genes identified by the American College of Medical Genetics, where the reporting of incidental findings would likely have a medical benefit,” explains Shawn C. Baker, sequencing expert and creator...
The chemistry will also improve sequencing performance, providing a 33% increase in sequencing yield per SMRT Cell. Collectively, these enhancements will enable each Revio instrument to sequence up to 2,500 human whole genomes per year at a cost of just under $500 ...

This economic evaluation estimates the cost-effectiveness of whole-genome sequencing compared with whole-exome sequencing and conventional testing in
Data deluge and the Human Microbiome Project: because the cost of genetic sequencing has declined so much, researchers are accumulating oceans of data for no clear purpose. The assumption is that something in the data will stimulate important questions, but this is not an effective way to ...
RNA sequencing was performed on hESCs cultured in E6bS, E8, and E6 control groups to compare gene expression. EPCAM is associated with tissue plasticity regulation and stem cell differentiation (Fagotto 2020; Sasaki et al. 2015). DPPA4 is involved in embryonic and stem cell development and the...
Chip chips away at the cost of a genome The latest contender in the race for the prized '$1,000 genome' has proved its mettle in a singularly appropriate way: by sequencing the genome of computer pioneer Gordon Moore. Like the computer chips made by Intel, the company that Moo......
Since the PacBio reads were used to phase the variants on the human genome in 2015 in ref. 14, the read length and sequencing throughput of the third-generation reads have increased by dozens of times. As the amount of data increases, users typically use more threads or develop hardware ac...
