In sequence, I think. Out today is the… Read MoreVine Gets A Personalized Channel Just For You

Dec 17, 10:00PM
Collecting genome data is reliable, fast and cheap. Yet, interpreting that data is unreliable, slow, and expensive — when it’s even possible. Today, genome interpretation is a burgeoning science, but it’s not yet a technology. A stricken patient has their genes sequenced and their mutations identified. But then, it can take a highly trained, and highly paid, expert many hours… Read MoreThe Breitling Exospace B55 Is The Latest Luxury Smartwatch
