The National Human Genome Research Institute keeps an up to date website on the costs of sequencing:

Their &quot;cost per genome&quot; image suggests the $1000 genome : <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.genome.gov&#x2F;images&#x2F;content&#x2F;costpergenome2015_4.jpg" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.genome.gov&#x2F;images&#x2F;content&#x2F;costpergenome2015_4.jp...</a> .<p>The costs of assaying a genome has dropped from $100 million to $1 thousand.<p>Identifying correlations with clinical metadata, understanding the post translational interactions and understanding the full roles of proteins and other molecules remains an intimidating and difficult job.
