Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is used to sequence both DNA and RNA. Billions of DNA strands get sequenced simultaneously using NGS. Whereas with Sanger Sequencing, only one strand is sequenced at a time.

While the Human Genome Project took over 30 years to sequence the human genome for the first time. Now with Next Generation Sequencing, a whole human genome can be sequenced in just one day.

This video describes the library preparation process, cluster generation, the sequencing reaction and filtering and alignment of the sequencing data. This video focuses on the primary sequencing method used by Illumina, Sequencing by Synthesis (SBS).
