How I sequenced my genome at home - home-seq
A tutorial for the high-agency, intrepid tinkerer: how I sequenced my genome on my kitchen table, what it took, why each step is necessary, and what it actually costs.
How I sequenced my genome at home - home-seq Why bother to sequence your genome at home ? Curiosity I own a Jetson Nano and Raspberry Pi, even though I can rent more compute in the cloud for less. The reason I am happy paying a premium for worse performing hardware, is that there is a special kind of pleasure I take in having a full system in front of me: I can touch it, I can change the OS, break it then reflash, and use it to build cool stuff. I wish biology had felt that way when I was growing up. I loved it as a teenager - enough to spend money I made selling second-hand clothes on eBay on
