The genomic equality in the information age
Owning a PC and an internet connection is an important thing in the information age.
Being able to sequence one's whole genome or get nearly whole genome information in a rich nation such as USA by paying $1,000 is also an imporant thing.
It is about knowing almost all the molecular information of self.
As much as the gaps in income, technology, the internet and personal computer, the gap among people who can utilize genomic information or not is an important issue.
Our scientists and governments should discuss this matter and provide the easiest access with minimum cost to our own genome information.
