Volta Labs grabs $20 million to address a growing genomics bottleneck

Twenty years ago, getting a human genome sequenced was a billion-dollar, international project. Today, you can get your dog’s genome sequenced by the end of the month for a few bucks. It speaks to the speed with which genetics has permeated our lives, but despite massive improvements to the technology, the process can still be a bit clunky in the lab.
Before you can even start to disentangle someone’s genetic code, you have to start with a sample. And that sample has to get prepped t
