How Whole-Genome Shotgun Sequencing Transforms Microbiome Testing | Interview with NirvanaBiome

from Biocanic's Health Intelligence Exchange Hosted by Biocanic Jeremy Malecha

Join us in this HIX livestream with guest Dana Walsh from NirvanaBiome to discuss How Whole-Genome Shotgun Sequencing Transforms Microbiome Testing. At NirvanaBiome, we use whole genome shotgun sequencing (also called WGS), for consistent, high-quality results and genome identification. With whole genome shotgun DNA sequencing, we are able to characterize the microbes found in your gut and understand some of the functions they may be performing. You will find estimates of the amount of microbes that were identified in your sample, and can compare your microbes to our group of more than 800 healthy people.
