EVENT DETAILS |
<P CLASS="p1"><STRONG>Welcome to the world of the whole genome!</STRONG></P>
<P CLASS="p1">The whole genome is a complete set of more than 6 billion "letters" of the DNA of a human, which includesall of its genes. 15 years ago, it took 15 years & cost $3 billion to sequence ONE whole humangenome. However, the advancement of sequencing technology has dramatically reduced the costto $1,000. Soon, it will cost less than $100.</P>
<P CLASS="p1">Judging from the striking speed of technological advancement, we envision a near future where every single person will own his or her own genetic code. But we have no idea what that world looks like, & what kind of information, insights, & potential we can uncover from within our very own bodies.</P>
<P CLASS="p1">Today for the whole genome is like the 90s for the Internet. Though the Internet had gained mass adoption, everyone was still scrambling to figure out what the Internet could be used for. Nobodyimagined that revolutionary tech giants like Google or Facebook would be born 10 years later.</P>
<P CLASS="p1">"G-Supernova" is a series of Hackathons & Ideathons specialized for Genomic ServiceApplications for the world of the whole genome.</P>
<P CLASS="p1">- A healthcare management system based on your genome<BR>- Digitalization of your taste<BR>- Personality analysis<BR>- Health management & precision medicine applications...</P>
<P CLASS="p1">The applications are infinite. In a world where everyone takes full ownership of their whole genome data, what iOS/Android app will be on your iPhone?What will services around you look like?Join us if you want to be a part of the next genomic revolution!</P>
