What do people think of Nebula for DNA sequencing? Being able to download all 300GB and reanalyze later, privately, sounds very attractive.

I was going to try https://mynucleus.com/faq, but regulations prevent them from operating in NY. Yeah I want to have my genome on my computer so I can query and explore it.

All we have yet to see now is CRISPR becoming equally affordable and accessible, and there will be an exponential uptick in experimentation (legal or otherwise) with gene editing, not just of humans but GMOs too. Truly the dawn of the bioinformatics age 3/3

What it also means is that the cost of pocket sequencers is reaching affordability (~$1–5K), which by itself will unleash radical innovation by allowing startups to play around with sequencing of their own. Sequencers used to be the size of a fridge (and many multiples of its cost) back in the Craig Venter days 2/3

The first full sequence from the Human Genome Project circa 2001 cost about $2.7B. It’s now ~$100 from Ultimate Genomics. The cost performance of sequencing has radically outperformed even Moore’s Law 1/3

@genomesdao uses them...
i thought it was about 100gb of data for 30x read though...
