A tinkerer says they have sequenced their own genome at home. This wasn’t a simple feat, nor a revolutionary, cheap new process, but they managed it armed with their Mac Studio and a few lab-grade but consumer-accessible biotech gadgets such as the Oxford Nanopore MinION.

To be clear, the blogger at iwantosequencemygenomeathome.com admits no medical advice is intended, and a kitchen genome sequencing test doesn’t match the accuracy or rigor of a clinical diagnosis.
