Abstract
DNA sequencing has had large impact on basic research and medical diagnosis. In recent years, next generation sequencing technologies have increased the sequencing speed and turnaround by magnitudes and slashed the costs. Here, we summarize different approaches and give examples for their application in clinical settings.
