Quotes from a blog post on Genetic Future:
Sequencing giant Illumina has announced that it has delivered its first commercial personal genome sequence. The sequence was generated by the genome sequencing service launched by Illumina back in June, and was delivered in collaboration with new personal genomics company Pathway Genomics. Illumina’s genome sequencing service costs $48,000, and its first customer was entrepreneur Hermann Hauser.……..
It’s … a shot across the bow for Complete Genomics, a company that just raised $45M to build a genome sequencing facility in Silicon Valley. Complete will be offering genome sequences for an order of magnitude less (around $5,000).
