Toward a new era in sequencing.
Sequencing is a powerful tool that helps scientists in gaining new insights in many areas of medicine and biology. The electrophoresis-based Sanger method is currently the most popular sequencing technology and was the foundation stone of the human genome project. With the Sanger technique it became possible to sequence not only complete genomes, but also fragments of genomes. Nowadays, this standard method is very close to reach its limits.
