DNAPrint Genomics Expands High-Throughput Genotyping Capacity Tuesday January 31, 7:00 am ET
January 30, 2006 X Prize For DNA Sequencing Announced
The Santa Monica, Calif., foundation plans to offer a $5 million to $20 million prize to the first team that completely decodes the DNA of 100 or more people in a matter of weeks, according to foundation officials and others involved.
Such speedy gene sequencing would represent a technology breakthrough for medical research. It could launch an era of "personal" genomics in which ordinary people can learn their complete DNA code for less than the cost of a wide-screen television. http://www.futurepundit.com/archives/003247.html
