Misha Angrist passes on a call from Case Western University for personal genomics customers to participate in a study of the experience of getting your genome scanned. If you've paid money to 23andMe, deCODEme or Navigenics, consider getting involved - Misha assures us that the process was relatively painless.
By the way, if you happen to be that most elusive of creatures - a happy customer of Navigenics - Drew Yates has been waiting to hear from you for a long time.

Katherine Kelly is a molecular biology major at Princeton University currently writing her senior thesis on personal genome services. As part of her research she would like to interview customers of 23andMe and Navigenics about their experiences of the personal genomics process.
The problem:…
Yesterday I discussed the decision of personal genomics company 23andMe to slash its price for a genome scan by 60%, to under $400.
In the comments to that post, industry observer David Hamilton pointed me to an article he's written for BNET on the implications of 23andMe's price plunge, which (…
Nearly five months after 23andMe dropped the price of its genome scan service from $1000 to $400, personal genomics competitor Navigenics has made its own foray into the lower-cost genetic testing market.
Navigenics has always been the most expensive of the three mainstream genome-scan companies,…
A curious tweet this morning from personal genomics company deCODEme, barely a few weeks after the declaration of formal bankruptcy of parent company deCODE Genetics:

The funny part is that now I'm the Helix Health practice manager. I guess if anybody wanted an opinion about applying this technology in a primary medical practice for patient medical care, I'm legitimately the authority on that now ---not just a noisy blogger. Too bad about that "crappy blog" comment on my Think Gene Navigenics post, huh? ;)
