The Complexity of Variants
Genetics and genomics is, let's talk about that for a couple of moments. If we are talking about one particular genetic marker, like, you know, the type of a particular gene, that's a very simple, small piece of data. But if you're throwing an entire genome into a model, then that’s a very, very large piece ofData. Now, is it, is it,. where is it on that spectrum of complexity? So we can characterize the human, the whole genome. The whole lot is 3.1 billion base pairs or letters long. And you can have variations, even that genome at any particular point. Some of those may be important
