Polonator

The Polonator is an automated, second-generation genome sequencing machine that is based on polony sequencing technology developed by George Church's group at Harvard Medical School. It will be used for the PGP (Personal Genome Project), and will also be available for sale at a price well below that of other second generation sequencers. The Polonator is inexpensive to operate, and features open source software, reagents, and protocols. The Polonator is being manufactured by Dover, a Danaher Motion Company.
