The Internet giant Google has set its sights on revolutionizing how researchers store, analyze, and share genomic data. The company recently entered into an agreement with the Broad Institute that allows it to integrate Broad’s Genomic Analysis Toolkit into Google Genomics. We spoke to David Glazer, director of engineering for Google, about its Google Genomics platform, the opportunity it sees in genomics, and what it’s doing to help researchers turn vast amounts of data into actionable information. This interview originally aired August 2015.
