High-throughput DNA sequencing machines, also known as next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, have revolutionized DNA sequencing by dramatically increasing its speed and reducing its cost. Unlike traditional sequencing methods, which could take years and cost millions of dollars to sequence a single genome, high-throughput machines can sequence thousands of genomes in a matter of days at a fraction of the cost. This advancement has made large-scale genomic studies more feasible and has accelerated research in areas such as genomics, personalized medicine, and evolutionary biology.
