What is high throughput sequencing?
Answer
High-throughput sequencing, also known as next-generation sequencing (NGS), is a modern sequencing technology that enables the rapid and simultaneous sequencing of millions of DNA fragments. This approach is characterized by its ability to produce a vast amount of data in a short period of time, thanks to advancements in sequencing chemistry, automation, and computational analysis. High-throughput sequencing has transformed genomic research by making it possible to sequence entire genomes, exomes, or targeted regions quickly and at lower costs, thus facilitating large-scale studies and discoveries in genomics, cancer research, and other fields.
