[Hplusroadmap] Question about current DNA sequencing technology?

[Dan Bolser]

Sorry for the dumb question, but what is the current 'state of the
art' DNA sequencing technology? How fast? How accurate?

What is 'next generation' sequencing (in real terms?).

Any info on the wiki?

It would be really great to see a time line of DNA sequencing
technology ... any links?

I just found out that there is a 'brand new' Solexa machine in the
building where I work, and to my shame I don't even know what that
means!

Thanks for any pointers to material that will let me catch up on this field.


Dan.
