How to sequence your own DNA at home

What kind of magic is going on here, am I missing something?

I've bee thinking about starting a company where I fish roots out of your sewer and identify the plant (by sequence if necessary) that you have to kill so your sewer doesn't collapse as soon as it otherwise would.

$100 to stave off that $10000 sewer replacement for a few years would be worth it to a lot of people

I wish this had some discussion of the results. The earlier reports about this sensor and process were very mixed. It’s a cool process either way, but I’d like to know how usable the real world output can be.

This is so cool. Thanks for doing this. The fact that we have this in a palm sized object is just crazy. Also, if/when we have a similar sized device for doing CRISPR .... umm i should stop here - it's becoming the plot of Gattaca

Reminds me of the Gloing Plant Project. I never got my glowing flower but would have settled for the instruction manual, also never created :(

By the by, can't seen to bring up the actual site linked on this post.

If you want it quick and cheap(er) - 599.00

one main marketing leverage of 23andMe, AncestryDNA, etc are fulfilling the curiosity of people who want to know which part of the world their genes are from. I guess that dataset should be preparatory.

I'm too afraid I would learn something awful about myself.

What is the accuracy in this ? Aka if I run the experiment 10 times how many differences will i get? I don’t have a physical sense on what would be a good number.

I am very impressed with the, why wait? just do it now approach to the future. which while not here, IS there.
