Well, this is kinda what I do.......
with the man at the front being the very man the place was named after....the legendary Nobel Prize winner, Fred Sanger. He devised the first cheap and reliable method of sequencing DNA, decoding the genome of a virus back in the 70's. That technology was the foundation of the upscaling process that was made to sequence the entire human genome, a technological feat that is probably on a par with putting man on the moon. The fascinating thing is that what took 5 years to do, with a collaboration of about 10 different labs and institutes all contributing all over the world can now be done in a matter of days for a tiny fraction of the price. Technology moves fast.............and we shall ALL be the beneficiaries of this incredible science........
