Genomic sequencing is a powerful tool for unlocking the secrets of life. By studying the genetic code of organisms, scientists can gain a deeper understanding of how they evolved, how they interact with their environment, and how they can be used to improve human health.
From Wikipedia
DNA sequencing is the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence – the order of nucleotides in DNA. It includes any method or technology that is used to determine the order of the four bases: adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. The advent of rapid DNA sequencing methods has greatly accelerated biological and medical research and discovery.
