View source for Getting your own Genome

<strong><font size="4">You can get the whole genetic map and sequences of you.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
It means that you can store nearly everything about your genetic information in a PC.</font></strong><br />
<br />

<strong>The Genomics recipe for having your own set of Genetic material&nbsp;:</strong><br />
<br />
1) Take small amount of blood from your body<br />
2) Do sequencing after amplifying the amount of genetic material (i.e., your genome parts)<br />
3) Assemble all the genetic parts of your genome&nbsp;<br />
4) Store the information in such a way that bioinformaists can analyze hundreds of aspects of your genome.<br />
5) Applying bioinformatics software to find interesting things such as relatedness, geneology, disease susceptability, and visualizing the whole genome.<br />
6) Finding critical information on yourself as a biological being.<br />
<br />
There will be thousands of companies by 2010 that try to help you get and see your own genomes.<br />
