The following is an edited excerpt.
Nabsys, a DNA technology startup, showed off today its solid-state gene sequencing machine at theย Advances in Genome Biology and Technology conferenceย in Marco Island, Florida. The company says that later this year it will begin selling its machine, which will allow researchers to determine the structural organization of long stretches of DNA. This differs from most existing sequencing methods, which read DNA in short snippets that are later stitched together by software. The new system will, at first, complement existing methods, but it could eventually offer cheaper and faster sequencing than other approaches.
