linked to by 1Admit it, you’re dying to get your hands on Watson’s genome, aren’t you? Who isn’t?! Yesterday James Watson was handed his sequenced genome on DVD from 454 Life Sciences. There’s a great press release from the Baylor College of...
This is the second edition of BlogMix (don’t forget about the 8th and upcoming edition of Gene Genie at Eye on DNA this weekend) where I try to show you the best of the medical-scientific blogosphere:Flea at Kevin, MDThere is no anonymity on the web....
Nicholas Wade writes about the sequencing of James Watson's genome: A copy of his genome, recorded on two DVDs, was presented to Dr. Watson yesterday in a ceremony in Houston by Richard A. Gibbs, director of the Human Genome Sequencing Center at the Baylor...
This is from the Nicholas Wade article on James Watson's genome: Some scientists believe that it will be medically useful to sequence patients' genomes when the cost of sequencing falls to around $10,000 or less. Dr. Egholm said that with improvements already...
Jim Watson has just become the first person to have his complete genome sequenced. Craig Venter's genome sequence is not far behind. Watson's genome was sequenced at the Baylor College of Medicine's sequencing center in collaboration with 424 Life Sciences,...
James Watson, co-discoverer of the DNA double helix and developer of the Human Genome Project, was presented with the DNA sequence data from his personal genome at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston on May 31st 2007.Photos of the event are on flickr: photosFrom...
Elementary Watson: DNA pioneer Dr. James Watson has had his genome sequenced. It will be used for research. For the rest of us, knowing our full genomic sequence remains not so elementary. The process is expensive, somewhere around but "less than" 1 million...
It took two months and cost "less than a million" (which I guess means close to a million) according to this NY Times article. He agreed to have the whole thing made public except for his apolipoprotein E gene that could give information about his susceptibility...
Congratulations to Dr. James Watson, co-discoverer of the structure of DNA, whose genome sequence will be handed to him on a DVD this week. His genome was sequenced six times over for quality control and it cost 454 Life Sciences approximately $2 million dollars...
