Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) provides a comprehensive analysis of an organism’s entire genetic blueprint, encompassing both coding and non-coding regions. It facilitates the identification of genetic variants aiding in research and clinical applications. It also finds use in personalized medicine as it offers detailed genetic insights that can guide tailored treatments
