Comment on Sergey Brin’s Search for a Parkinson’s Cure parent

One of my hats is being an analyst dealing with exome (all exons in the genome) sequencing for my lab. We do a lot of exomes.

That would be great at a party:

"What do you do for a living?"

"Exomes."

-spits drink out-

Hah! If that would go over well at a party of yours, you'll need to introduce me to your friends :)

We are dealing with transcriptomes. Do you do targeted sequencing of exomes (DNA), or RNA?

Just DNA, on my end (human lipoprotein genetics). I know that the cancer folks have a lot of interest in RNA, however. What is your focus? (Edit: your profile pretty much explains it! )
