According to the press release, “The rapid evolution of DNA sequencing technologies has required the Broad Institute to transition its genome sequencing efforts from performing high-throughput work on the traditional technologies to actively developing and optimizing the use of next-generation high-throughput sequencing technologies...
...19th century. We can expect a literary culture of pleasure and immediate gratification. Reading on a screen speeds you up: you don't linger on the language; you just click through. We'll see less modernist-style difficulty and more romance-novel-style sentiment and high-speed-narrative throughput. Novels will compete to hook you in the first paragraph and then hang on for dear life...
...shortcut that had evolved to move the line more quickly. It was a strong statement that Starbucks cares about quality--with a clear shot glass, a barista can make sure the espresso correctly settles into three layers--and isn't led by a fast-food-style obsession with throughput...

...extract relevant information from patients who walk into the clinic without having to sequence all of their genes,” said Garraway. The study presents a streamlined way of detecting mutations in key oncogenes, or genes that promote cancer growth. By adapting a common scientific method called high-throughput genotyping to target specific sequences in oncogenes susceptible to mutations, Garraway obtained accurate mutation profiles of 17 oncogenes. A profile of an individual’s gene expression pattern can provide doctors with important details, including disease prognosis and how a patient may respond to certain drugs. According to Garraway...
