Nebula offered specials for full genome sequencing.
They’re now owned by DNA complete.
DNA Complete prices it at 495. I paid half that for 30x.
“By analyzing your DNA multiple times, we can significantly increase accuracy. 30x Whole Genome Sequencing means that 100% of your DNA is sequenced an average of 30 times, thus providing even higher accuracy. Typical DNA Ancestry tests sequence less than 1% of your DNA.”
- GTP 2y agoYes, compute is cheap, but it was the actual lab procedure that required expensive equipment while also being time-consuming (although I don't remember the time required, maybe it wasn't that much). I remember the professor mentioning an upcoming machine by Illumina that was soon be able to sequence the DNA without cutting it into pieces, this is probably part of the cost reduction as in this way you wouldn't need to run a multiple alignment algorithm to reconstruct the sequence from the pieces. Thanks for pointing at this resource.
