Genome Sequencing Cost 2001-2012

Interesting the genome has gone down dramatically since 2001 and most likely will continue to go down. The  big decrease seemed to come after 2008 and I suspect will be very affordable within the next 10 years and perhaps just another test that the doctor does. As more genomes are sequenced we can compare them, look at them over time, and see how they change to get cancer, diseases, and other illnesses along how they repair. It is amazing how the free market works when people get greedy and want to serve their fellow man.
