Essentially, he will put the entire genome in a dicer that will chop it into millions of segments. These chunks will be fed into 230 newly developed Perkins-Elmer robotic machines that will identify and sequence the DNA code letters in each segment. The company claims that they are 10 times more efficient than current sequencing machines and allow human operators to input in 15 minutes what used to take 24 hours...
