This is a first look at a Veritas Bam file by the folks at YFull. This is how this first look at the data compares to Y Chromosome tests done today by FullGenomes and Familytreedna. This was posted on YFull Facebook page by Vadim Urasin.

An quality of your Veritas Genetics BAM file is less than Big Y in average. This is enough for SNP calling. STR calling will be worse. We can't guarantee a quality of STR calling. But width of the coverage is in the same level as in Y Elite, wider than in Big Y. Resume: SNPs better than Big Y but worse than Y Elite, STRs worse than Big Y and Y Elite.

Veritas genetics launches $999 whole genome and sets new standard for genetic testing
New product in the market place:

VERITAS GENETICS LAUNCHES $999 WHOLE GENOME AND SETS NEW STANDARD FOR GENETIC TESTING
Boston, MA, March 3, 2016 – Veritas Genetics, co-founded by Harvard Medical School professor and genetics pioneer Dr. George Church, today introduces Veritas myGenome, the world’s first whole genome for less than $1,000, including interpretation and genetic counseling.
I am starting this thread to solicit any information regarding the testing of this new product. This certainly looks as if it can be a game changer in genomic testing. Seems to be 30x coverage but I would like to know more specifics from anyone with knowledge of the product. Questions that come to mind are coverage areas and snp detection number in the Y chromosome area. What the snp detection number is at their 30x coverage? Is the data available for personal use and what file format the data is in? Ease of use with inquiry software of genome at the Veritas site.

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
