The Cost of Sequencing a Human Genome
Has Fallen Over 10,000x in the Last Ten Years!




           This Has Enabled Sequencing of
          Both Human and Microbial Genomes
BGI—The Beijing Genome Institute
   is the World’s Largest Genomic Institute




• Main Facilities in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, China
   – Branch Facilities in Copenhagen, Boston, UC Davis
• 137 Illumina HiSeq 2000 Next-Gen Sequencing Systems
   – Each Illumina Next Gen Sequencer Generates 25 Gigabases/Day
• Supported by High Performance Computing and Storage
   – ~160TF, 33TB Memory
   – Large-Scale (12PB) Storage
From 10,000 Human Genomes Sequenced in 2011
  to 1 Million by 2015 in Less Than 5,000 sq. ft.!
