I am getting my genome sequenced by Dante's Labs. I also ought the all-panels-bundle.
I plan to use that information to inform further health decisions. I may need to look into the wgs-data itself to gather information from there. E.g. the exact alleles on locations I might want to look up, but that were not reportert on in the panels.
Will I find open-source tools for squeezing out more information from my genome than Dante's Labs Reports will give me?
Or will I find the whole ordeal daunting and give up after a day of trying?
Market conditions:
I am reasonably into "computers", but by no means a pro E.g. I use Linux, but only use Ubuntu. Can use a command line, but have never had my own server and never contributed to OS-Projects.
I studied bioprocess-technology, finished a B.Sc. at a european university and had beginners courses on biology and genetics.
I dropped out of my masters and am missing the intellectual challenge and the feeling of doing something important with my brain.
I really liked the idea-space of longevity and health span increase. Love to learn and always had a knack for molecular biology.
I have no history of serious hereditary illness in my family.
I work a sh*tton and have some other projects going on, so I won't try for more than one or two hours a week.
I will give it an honest try to find good uses for my own data, to find tools to use and try to build a habit of looking up stuff on my genome.
I will not trade in this market.
Market motivation:
trying to assess the usability of open-source tools for DYI genome-analysis.
Speculating on traders who understand a bit more sharing their knowledge. Maybe find an online community.
Resolution criteria:
Entirely subjective. Based on my feeling after the initial flashes of excitement, a few weeks into the project.
The kit has not arrived yet, so I haven't even taken samples. Much less gotten any data.
