Sequencer Lights the Way Toward Faster, Cheaper Genomics

摘要

In 1998 Pal Nyren and his colleagues at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, published an entirely new method for reading DNA (M. Ronaghi, et al., Science, 281 [5375]: 363-5, 1998). That technique is at the heart of the #2 paper, which promises to shift genome sequencing up a gear.
