genome sequencing

From the cover story of the latest issue of IEEE Spectrum, "The Gene Machine and Me", the cost of human genome sequencing has dropped to $1000 nowadays. ($10M 8 years ago). Though you may be able to find the lurking bad genes in the genome sequencing, it is only good for the monitoring purpose; basically impossible to ask your doctor to build a treatment plan from the results of genome sequencing at this moment. However, with pricing dropping precipitously, more people may do the genome sequencing and, therefore, more statistically significant database will be built to make the interpretation of genome sequencing more "medically actionable" in the future. (If this miracle can happen 20 years from now, well, I probably don't care since a shadowy Grim Reaper will be waving at me at that time anyway.)
