In today’s episode, I speak with Dr. Kamal Obbad, the co-founder of Nebula Genomics. Kamal is a Harvard and Gates-Cambridge Scholar with research experience at Google. Recognizing a gap in the consumer market for Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS), he co-founded Nebula Genomics to democratize access to comprehensive genomic data. Kamal aims to make personal genomics mainstream and accessible.  We chat about the significance of whole genome sequencing and its potential to improve health and wellness. Kamal gives us a lesson on what the genome is, the importance of studying the whole genome sequence for health optimization, and why it has previously been so cost prohibitive to secure whole genome sequencing.  In this episode you will learn: - Understand the concept of personal genomics and its potential impact on health and wellness. - Learn about the difference between whole genome sequencing and other genetic tests. - Gain knowledge about the complexity of DNA and the importance of non-coding regions in genetic analysis. - Recognize the limitations and concerns associated with genetic testing and the need for genetic counseling. - Explore the future possibilities of DNA sequencing and its role in personalized medicine Learn more about Nebula Genomics and Kamal’s work: nebula.org
