-Technological advances in molecular genetics at the end of the twentieth century have established a strong foundation for genetic analysis. Shotgun sequencing has allowed for the sequencing of longer DNA sections, which has played a significant role in the Human Genome Project ​(cite). In this method, DNA is enzymatically broken into smaller fragments and cloned for individual sequencing prior to realignment ​(cite). Nearly a decade later, subsequent advances in next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have made genomic analysis much more economically feasible and have thus enabled applications of genomics across clinical and research settings ​(cite).+Technological advances in molecular genetics at the end of the twentieth century have established a strong foundation for genetic analysis.
