In 2000, the USD $3 billion genome sequencing project, led by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), completed a working draft of the human genome sequence. This heralded in the era of genome medicine. Based on the support of the human genome extension project and the research needs of translational medicine, the second generation of big data sequencing technologies was developed in 2007. When these technologies reach maturity, even larger amounts of data will be generated but ...more
