In the first 12 minutes of this video Alan cuts the cost of entering the DNA sequencing field from $600-1,000 down to $130, and goes on to explain the error of sequencing at universities - all while continuing to share high level information in a level of detail that will literally revolutionize biology as a field for citizen scientists. Alan has also helped me personally find my first microscope, and is a true gem of a human. I look forward to the additional jaw dropping information in the rest of this video!
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of this Alan. This makes me really curious to find out where some of Vancouver Island's oyster mushrooms would end up sequencing. Absolutely fascinating, huge thanks.
Minion uses electricity and pores instead of tubes. Makes field sequencing far more accessible but the price for the flow cells is still pretty high for hobbyists.

alan is a mycological hero
Yes, totally in agreement. 🧭
Wow this is gold! Thanks Alan hope to meet you someday, I live in Vallejo and I am obsessed with muchrooms!
