When will 23andMe switch to exome sequencing?

SEQanswers June Challenge Has Begun!

The competition has begun! We're giving away a $50 Amazon gift card to the member who answers the most questions on our site during the month. We want to encourage our community members to share their knowledge and help each other out by answering questions related to sequencing technologies, genomics, and bioinformatics. The competition is open to all members of the site, and the winner will be announced at the beginning of July. Best of luck!

When will 23andMe switch to exome sequencing?

09-29-2013, 04:19 AM

Hi all,

do you think, that 23andMe will switch to exome sequencing anytime soon? Or will they do whole genome sequencing if prices should fall below 1,000 dollars?

Their exome-pilot was in 2011/2012 but there weren't any news since then.

2 years after they are still on microarray although they keep changing their array design

the customers are so many that they are not glad to change their platform, maybe they just think the test is enough.
