Finding the Needle in the Genomic Haystack With DRAGEN
When scientists want to sequence a DNA sample on an Illumina system, they don’t try to read all 4 billion base pairs of the genome at once. Instead, they slice the DNA into short fragments of about 500 base pairs that are easier to work with and faster to read.

What Our Primate Relatives Can Teach Us About Our Own Genomes
Each person’s genetic code harbors millions of variants that differ from one individual to the next, and account for differences in health and disease risk. The more human genomes are sequenced, the more data researchers have to compare and predict which variants are most likely.
