    Number of human genomes sequenced

    Does anyone know the precise number of human genomes sequenced to this day?

    The last prediction I saw was in this Nature's news feature, saying that by the end of 2011 more than 30,000 would probably have been sequenced.
    Was this prediction full-filled?

    Cheers

      I am afraid your question is akin to asking "as of today what is the precise number of humans in the world?" There is no one central place to find that data. Actually your question is even worse since 'sequenced' is a very vague term -- do you mean completely sequenced? Or one of the many partially sequenced humans? And then at what level of partial?

          16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
          by SEQadmin2




          NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

          Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
          by SEQadmin2



          Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

          Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating          ...
