The Progress Network is looking for writers to submit articles on genome sequencing. The cost of sequencing a full human genome has fallen rapidly. We’re curious about what it might mean for the future. Is that in your wheelhouse?
ABOUT THE COMPANY
The Progress Network is building an idea movement that speaks to a better future in a world dominated by voices that suggest a worse one. It connects and amplifies those voices that are pointing our world in a more positive direction, providing a template for a stable and sustainable future. Our contributors come from diverse fields of business, tech, journalism, politics, and more, but are united in their conviction that humanity’s ingenuity and willingness to cooperate for the common good is ultimately more potent than forces pulling in the other direction.
MORE INFORMATION ABOUT SUBJECT MATTER
In 2001 sequencing a full human genome is estimated to have cost more than $95 million. By 2021 that cost had fallen more than 200,000-fold, to just $450. The rapidity of this has far outpaced other exponential trends, such as Moore’s Law. Read more: https://ourworldindata.org/
