Element Biosciences hit the $100 genome milestone in February 2026 — a one-million-fold cost reduction from the $100M price tag of the Human Genome Project in 2000, far outpacing Moore's Law.

Google DeepMind announced AlphaGenome on June 25, 2025, alongside a Nature publication and a preview API for non-commercial research. The model processes up to 1 million DNA letters and jointly predicts diverse regulatory properties and variant effects from a single framework.
