It's football season, and so men are shouting. The merits of their respective arguments are measured in proportion to the decibel level at which those arguments are offered. Business as usual at ESPN.
Specifically, five men are sitting around an oblong table, yowling hymns to powerful notions they are unable or unwilling to define: intangibles, willpower, heart, effort, desire. It could be any NFL pregame or halftime or postgame show, but this is ESPN's Monday Night Countdown, and it is helping viewers get ready for some football. Those five men shouting are not enough, and so there are three other men at the site of Monday's game; they sit around another oblong table, voices also raised. Of these eight men, six are former players or coaches, and the other two are ESPN Personalities Chris Berman and Stuart Scott. Across the bottom of the screen, one of the most complex, involved and fascinating statistics about football ever created—the result of years of work and multitudes of dollars that only a profit-machine like ESPN could afford to spend on a statistic—is scrolling across the screen. No one is shouting about Total QBR, though. No one is even really whispering about it.
Total QBR (or more accurately, QBR, since the 'total' is a marketing prefix) was fighting an uphill battle from the start. Jon Gruden, former-coach-turned-ESPN-shouter, welcomed it into the world by cautioning, "I'm worried about it because it sounds like a lot of stuff and it's another quarterback statistical rating formula." And this was Gruden, a quarterback-obsessive who, in our high-volume/low-wattage national football converation, qualifies as an intellectual. The rest of the football discourse—all limp n' loud machismo and soft-focus Tebow slashfic and sentimental pomp—is backwards and anti-thought enough to make Tony Siragusa look like Slavoj Zizek. This was the environment in which QBR was expected to grow.
Last year, after years of expensive and time-consuming research, ESPN unveiled QBR with great fanfare as a replacement for the conventional (and widely unloved) passer rating. It was supposed to change the way quarterbacks were measured and compared, and since it was coming from the Worldwide Leader in Sports, it was sure not be left in academic obscurity. And that would be, or would have been, a good thing: passer rating is strange, from its maximum possible score of 158.3 on down, and both over-precise and vague; QBR, on the other hand, was supposed to be easily accessible to the average fan and complex enough to encapsulate both the evaluative concepts that stat-nerds love and the dizzying range of facets that comprise quarterbacking. It was supposed to be a tough thread of reason running through the noise-field emanating from those former players and coaches around those oblong tables. The shouters might even have recognized it, in time, and used it to support or rebut those endless arguments about the Most Clutch Quarterback, or help make clearer just what it is that a QB has when he has that indescribable and undeniable "it." QBR was supposed to be all these things, and so of course it is none of them.
"It's got a lot of really cool stuff in it," Aaron Schatz of Football Outsiders told me about QBR. "I wish they used it more." Instead, QBR has become a literal sidebar to your regularly scheduled NFL programming—another number vanishing under the crush of all that noise.
Until recently, ESPN wanted no part of advanced statistics. Websites like Advanced NFL Stats, Football Outsiders, and their equivalents in every major sport evolved and thrived in the vacuum created by ESPN's proud lack of interest. These online intellectual communities developed in response to the dearth of any such analysis in the mainstream, and created their own statistics to better understand what we saw. But the online stathead scene has always been just a community, never a mass movement. Advanced stats were unlikely to reach the type of person who watches Around The Horn. QBR was, at least in part, an attempt to bridge that gap.
At its core, QBR is an amalgamation of several other stats. Dean Oliver (that's him at left), who's widely regarded as a stats genius and is ESPN's director of production analytics, consulted the work that Brian Burke and others had done at Advanced NFL Stats and made it the foundation for QBR. The resulting hybrid stat incorporates the concepts of Wins Probability Added and Expected Points Added, both used by Burke. But QBR does several unique things Football Outsiders and Advanced NFL Stats don't do in their ratings: it combines passing and rushing values, doesn't adjust for the strength of the opponent, and incorporates ESPN's game-charting data to assign responsibility to the quarterback depending on each play's outcome. The game-charting is a labor-intensive task that only ESPN could do, Schatz says, and it allows QBR to account for dropped passes, value sacks differently based on the situation, add new wrinkles to air yards, or count scrambles and planned rushes differently, among other things.
Those are, obviously and inevitably, a lot of "other things." But that's quarterbacking, and taking the position's many facets all into account helps make QBR such a useful metric. "The goal of QBR is to come up with the best possible measure of how well a quarterback played," Schatz says, and he emphasized it was pretty good at this. (It's worth mentioning that Schatz, aside from his longstanding role at Football Outsiders, is a regular on ESPN programming. He noted several times to me that he understands how his praise might be perceived, but stressed he truly does value QBR as a good metric.)
As with everything having to do with ESPN, QBR is not without its controversies. Most notably, QBR is proprietary—as are Football Outsiders stats like DYAR and DVOA—meaning that the statistical models behind the stat are still secret. This is an old conflict: the challenge is popularizing a product without losing the ability to commodify it. It's understandable, but it has brought QBR in for some criticism. Schatz defended it—so long as the components of the metric are revealed, which ESPN has done with QBR. "It's a black box, but I'll tell you what's in the box, I just don't let you see it," Schatz says. "I tell you it's a ham sandwich. I don't tell you how many slices of ham it is, or how thick it is, but you know it's a ham sandwich. It's the same way with QBR."
Without a doubt, the most controversial aspect of QBR—and the one that would surely please ESPN's bellowing knights of the oblong table—is the Clutch Index, which weights every play according to the situation's import. In football as in baseball, mentioning the word "clutch" is the advanced stats equivalent of yelling "fire" in a crowded theater; people get panicky, incredulous and angry at once, start shouting, and ultimately try and run away as fast as possible. Stuff gets trampled. It's not a good look.
It's also not necessarily a defensible concept. If Quarterback A plays in a blowout, and Quarterback B puts up identical stats as Quarterback A but does so in a close victory that features a fourth quarter comeback, Quarterback B will have the better QBR. (Schatz has written that offensive performance in the first quarter correlates better with winning than performance in any other quarter.) As Schatz clarified, in QBR, "quarterbacks are not rewarded for being in clutch situations, but rather for performing well in them."
But nobody knows how ESPN defines a clutch situation or how it's weighted, which only adds to the community's nervousness over the concept. Still, most people outside the comment sections of Football Outsiders do believe in the concept of clutch, and ESPN built QBR for everyone.
Which is a big part of how and why ESPN has not succeeded just yet in crossing-over QBR—the stat is for everyone, which alienates the purists in the stathead community, and yet it took 600 words for me to fully explain the damn thing and so is clearly not for the "average" fan as ESPN conceives that fan to exist. Those who need something simpler than the traditional passer rating because of its infamous 158.3 scale have, in QBR, a metric normalized on a 0-100 scale. But it's not simpler, really, because it couldn't be simpler and even begin to do its job. And it could, arguably, not be simple enough to resonate with brainiacs like Woody Paige while still deserving to be called an idea. The market for QBR is, inevitably, strained.
After ESPN's early season QBR-propaganda blitz in 2011, it gradually stopped being talked about on TV. Jaws and Gruden mentioned it less and less on the Monday Night Football broadcast; by my unscientific count, it hasn't been mentioned once this season. QBR stopped being featured on Monday Night Countdown, and its appearances on SportsCenter tapered off. It is prominent on ESPN.com's sub-blogs and displayed on Football Outsiders side-by-side with their own stats, but seldom discussed out loud. On Monday Night Football broadcasts, ESPN uses the old passer rating. Nobody is shouting about QBR anymore.
Which makes sense, since this is not a stat built to be shouted about, and because shouting is a lousy way to have a conversation. QBR requires the kind of discourse Burke, Schatz, and their sites have created over years of conversation; it's a metric built on several thousand lines of code, years of investment, and several complex concepts, all of them reduced to one number. It's a great idea, in a discourse broadly resistant to ideas.
Brian Burke isn't surprised to see ESPN giving QBR the sink-or-swim treatment. "You cannot possibly watch and accurately process all 16 games in one weekend, no less all the games of a season, including the playoffs and Super Bowl," he says. "The purpose of a statistic is to be a first estimate towards the truth, because your brain can't process all that information. So it's going to be flawed, but you have to accept that." What ESPN wanted—and what ESPN's way of talking about the NFL demands—from QBR was an argument-ender, a metric that doubled as truth-with-capital-T. But stats don't do that. They can't.
Instead, the complications inherent in advanced statistics only increase the number of things to argue about. "Every time you're factoring something in, you're bringing in a possible source of error," Burke says. "Inherent in all statistics is the Central Limit Theorem, which is that a lot of these immeasurables are uncorrelated with what you're trying to get at. So sometimes it will be the case that a quarterback did make an awesome, exceptionally accurate throw, and sometimes it will be the receiver [who made a big play happen], but on average it's going to wash out in the long run. That's why you need the long run."
QBR is maybe best understood as a metaphorical representation of ESPN's own Central Limit Theorem. In the short run, it seems like a failure because no one is talking about it. But it hasn't yet been given the long run in which to show its worth. It's stuck scrolling below the Monday Night Football/Countdown crowd, who are doubtless as skeptical as Gruden about the stat ("I'm concerned about it," Gruden said after it launched. "I'm excited about it. But I'm skeptical.") and almost certainly less excited. If football's designated talkers can't coherently discuss their feelings about QBR—or if they're so dedicated to the ambiguities of clutch and intangible that they find the very idea of quantification offensive—how can they be expected to discuss QBR itself?
QBR deserved better than this. It's too useful, too intriguing, and too rich to be dismissed, and not too complicated to be discussed. You don't have to agree with the clutch index in order to see its potential. You don't have to embrace its lack of adjusting for defenses to see the value in measuring quarterback performances. But as it stands, QBR is stuck. ESPN programming can't talk about it coherently, and as Schatz succinctly stated, "This is not meant to be a metric for Brian Burke." So if the ESPN crowd is concerned-excited-skeptical-worried about QBR, but QBR is not sufficiently hardcore for the stat nerds, what is QBR's audience?
There is a chance that QBR is itself the statistical noise that will wash out in the long run per the Central Limit Theorem Burke described; in that case, ESPN programming will continue to be ESPN programming, and the idea of QBR will wither, gather dust, disintegrate back into the internet. Or QBR could be the start of a little renaissance, an idea good enough to last and maybe earn spots for Aaron Schatz, Brian Burke, Dean Oliver and others at those oblong tables. It's still too soon to tell QBR's fate. But this is an easy idea to cheer for, and not just because some quiet reason would bring the volume down in Bristol.

Our Show
Hear Ryan Adams and Bob Mould Play Music And Talk About Everything Under The Sun
There's new music from Bob Mould. His latest album, Patch The Sky, comes out March 25. One of this legendary musician's biggest fans — from his punk days of Hüsker Dü to the land of Sugar and his prolific and exciting solo records — is musician Ryan Adams. And as a fan and friend, Ryan invited Bob to his PAX-AM Studio and pressed record.
So for the next hour you'll hear Bob and Ryan play music and hear a sprawling, geeky and fun conversation. Sometimes it's about Bob's record, other times it's about Metallica bootlegs, caveman sounding lyrics, favorite cereals, fasted band, how the revival of vinyl helps make better, more focused records, praying, the quietness of church, zombies, Einstürzende Neubauten, noise rock and recording/mixing/soundboards.
You'll also hear them break into song. Over the course of the hour-long conversation, they play three versions of two songs from Bob Mould's new album recorded right there in Ryan Adams' PAX-AM studio — they do "Hold On" and "The End of Things" together and then Bob plays "The End of Things" by himself. These aren't the recordings from Patch The Sky; it's just two friends, making music, having fun.

Liberal minority mobsters and Crist's latest shameful endorsement; Update: Rubio widens lead
I've shared many stories about being a minority conservative with you.
We're reviled by the Left for our "betrayal" of our supposed tribes — accused of being Uncle Toms, Aunt Tomasinas, House Niggas, puppets of the White Man, Oreos, Sambos, coconuts, bananas, sellouts, and whores.
This is how the ethnic tribalist left rolls.
But fiercely individualist and equipped with mighty thick skin, most fellow minority conservatives I know rise above the plantation mentality and brush off liberal crabs in the bucket viciously trying to hold onto dissenters "of color."
In Florida, GOP Senate candidate Marco Rubio has been subjected to the Uncle Tom and coconut smears.
That's par for the course. What's remarkable now is that pathetic "independent" loser Charlie Crist is actually bragging about an endorsement from an organization that defines people solely by their ethnicity. (Hat tip: Terry Ann Online)
From Crist's website:
La Gaceta Endorses Charlie Crist for U.S. Senate
Friday, October 8th, 2010
Prominent Trilingual Newspaper Endorses Charlie Crist for U.S. Senate, urges Florida voters to unite against Marco Rubio
This is a most unusual race that is drawing national attention. Former Florida Speaker of the House Marc Rub (we have stripped Marco Rubio of his Hispanicness and the vowels from his name) is the Republican nominee and faces Congressman Kendrick Meek, who is the Democratic nominee, and both are being challenged by Governor Charlie Crist, who is no party's nominee. Let's also not forget the other 10 candidates.
Their names are irrelevant.
This race draws national attention because of its national importance. A Rub win here could change the balance of the Senate. It would give the Tea Partiers a big win with their most mainstream candidate. It also could set the direction of Florida for years to come. If Rub wins, he'll get 12 years in the Senate which he'll parlay into eight years as governor and then a run for the White House. His unbridled ambition and no-moral-constraints policy positions make Marc Rub one dangerous hombre.
What bothers us the most about Rub is that he's turned his back on his Hispanic family, and that's unacceptable.
The endorsement goes on to tediously refer to "Rub" and attacks him for taking policy positions contrary to the "Hispanic family" mob.
Let's hope Florida resoundingly rejects such identity politics demagoguery and lets Crist sink to the bottom of the crab bucket. It won't come soon enough.
Commenter Lockstein13:
This "La Gaceta" endorsement – when translated into Standard English – sounds a lot like "They want to take away our seat."
Gee, I dunno why, but that sounds sooooooooooo familiar.
In the Florida U.S. Senate race, Republican Marco Rubio is running away with a commanding 44 – 30 percent likely voter lead over Gov. Charlie Crist, running as an independent, with Democrat U.S. Rep. Kendrick Meek third with 22 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Apple investigates battery issues on iPhones: Bug tells users they have more juice left on their device than they really do
- Apple has reported a bug which displays the incorrect battery percentage
- Battery percentage may not update after time zone is changed
- The firm has confirmed it is investigating, on iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus
- Users are advised to restart their phones and check their settings
How much juice does your iPhone have left? If you've just changed timezone, you may want to plug it in, just in case.
Apple has confirmed it is investigating a bug in its operating software which displays the incorrect battery percentage on some models of its flagship iPhone.
Users of the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus may find their phone's battery percentage fails to update when they change timezones or update the phones' time settings manually.
Apple confirmed last week that it is investigating a bug which displays the incorrect battery percentage on some models of its iPhone
Instead the device will suggest they have more battery life than they really do.
In a post on its support website, the Apple stated: 'If you change the time on your iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus manually or change time zones when traveling, you might notice that the battery percentage doesn't update.'
The temporary fix suggested by the Apple tech team is to restart the phone and to check that the auto date and time setting is on.
The firm advises users to contact Apple support if the issue persists, especially if they haven't changed time settings.
Apple states that it is 'aware of the issue and is investigating the cause and a solution.'
Some users have complained of the problem on Twitter.
The issue is believed to affect the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s, Apple confirmed in a statement on its support website. A stock image illustrates the iPhone 6s (left) and iPhone 6s Plus (right)
Apple said that users may find that their phone's battery percentage fails to update when they change timezone, or update the phones' time settings manually, showing they have more battery life than they do. |A stock image illustrates the battery display while charging on an older model of the phone
Apple made a statement on its support site
Apple has said that changing the time on your iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus manually or change time zones when travelling, may cause the battery percentage not to update properly
It advises users to follow these steps:
- Restart the phone
- Go to Settings > General > Date & Time and ensure that 'Set Automatically' is always on
The firm adds: 'If this happens again and you didn't change the time or time zone on your device, contact Apple Support.
Apple has recently released a number of power updates for its iPhones.
Earlier this month the technology firm also unveiled a 'night mode' for its devices, an update aimed at reducing the amount of blue light emitted by the phone at night.
A number of studies have indicated there may be a link between the use of electronic devices at bedtime, the blue light they emit, and disrupted sleep.
The new mode comes as part of the iOS 9.3 beta update for iPhone 5s and later.
Apple said: 'Night Shift uses your iOS device's clock and geolocation to determine when it's sunset in your location.
'Then it automatically shifts the colours in your display to the warmer end of the spectrum, making it easier on your eyes.'
Last year, a 'Low Power' mode update was introduced as part of the iOS 9 update for the phones. This enabled users to stretch their phone's battery life, by stopping apps from refreshing in the background.
The mode is automatically disabled once the phone is sufficiently charged.
Apple had claimed that power efficiency improvements will give some users an extra hour of additional time before charging.
These battery improvements should be seen on all devices but will more significant on newer devices with hardware that is powerful enough to take advantage of them.
MailOnline contacted Apple for further comment but had not received a reply at time of publication.
Rumours abound over the next iteration of the iPhone.
At the end of 2015, one designer revealed his vision for the next version of the handset.
Experts expect it to be the first to abandon the traditional home button in favour of a '3D Touch' screen.
The move would mean Apple would have to move its Touch ID sensor/fingerprint scanner to elsewhere on the phone.
Tech website TechRadar believes it will be the thinnest phone to date, but may also be in store for more rugged features, such as waterproof and dust resistance seen in other top end smartphones.
The website speculates that the new phone may be launched in September.

Stemming the Tideby Winston S. Churchill
These speeches demonstrate a
- LendMe LendMe™ Learn More
This collection of speeches cover the period from 1951 to 1952, when Churchill once again stepped into the role of Prime Minister after his defeat in the General Election of 1945. During his first premiership, Churchill had been a renowned wartime leader. In his second, Churchill's clear priority was the preservation of peace.
These speeches demonstrate a commitment to this path. Churchill tried heroically to negotiate a settlement with Russia during this time, but he was ultimately unable to prevent the conditions that would later give rise to the Cold War. He also held deep regrets over Britain's failure to prevent violence and death in India during the transition of power and Britain's withdrawal in the region. These speeches demonstrate perhaps a more introspective Churchill, but one as fiery, brilliant, and human as he was during his wartime years.
Sir Winston Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1953 "for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory in defending exalted human values."
Over a 64-year span, Churchill published over 40 books, many multi-volume definitive accounts of historical events to which he was a witness and participant. All are beautifully written and as accessible and relevant today as when first published.
During his fifty-year political career, Churchill served twice as Prime Minister in addition to other prominent positions-including President of the Board of Trade, First Lord of the Admiralty, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Home Secretary. In the 1930s, Churchill was one of the first to recognize the danger of the rising Nazi power in Germany and to campaign for rearmament in Britain. His leadership and inspired broadcasts and speeches during World War II helped strengthen British resistance to Adolf Hitler-and played an important part in the Allies' eventual triumph.
One of the most inspiring wartime leaders of modern history, Churchill was also an orator, a historian, a journalist, and an artist. All of these aspects of Churchill are fully represented in this collection of his works.
After leading Britain to victory against the forces of Hitler, Churchill continued his involvement in public life-holding the positions of Prime Minister and Minister of Defence from 1951 until 1955. During this time, and after his departure from political life, Churchill retained a marked amount of influence on the global stage.
Although he remained in power after the war, this time was bittersweet for Churchill-who was acutely aware of the decline of the British Empire's global power. Churchill's speeches during that time give a poignant account of his state of mind and observations in the twilight of his career.

Kickstarter scam steals thousands of dollars from over 100 people
For every good thing in the world there's a bad one to balance it out. In the case of Kickstarter the good definitely outweighs the bad, although a nefarious sort has infiltrated its walls and left 100 creators out of pocket.
Someone by the username of Encik Farhan (Encik being Jawi for Mister) has ripped off around 100 Kickstarter users by exploiting a loophole in the supply chain.
The scam was a pretty simple one. Encik would back a project by donating, say, £1,000. Then he would wait for the pledge prize to arrive, be it prototypes, clothes, or whatever. Once the swag arrived he would dispute the payment with his credit card company - leaving him with both the money and the pledge prize. So the victims in all this end up being the creative inventor types.
One victim, cartoonist Alex Herberling, spotted the scam and has promised to work with the payment processor (Amazon) to investigate the situation and, hopefully, close the loophole.
Here's hoping this problem is solved before other have-a-go thieves try the scheme and leave inventors out of pocket, stunting innovation.

HEAD Penn dominates on the Vegas Strip
Las Vegas, Nevada — Players from the HEAD Penn team swept the professional divisions at the 2013 3 Wallball World Championships held last weekend in the shadow of the Stratosphere on the Las Vegas Strip.
Rocky Carson (Orange County, California) captured the title in the Men's Professional Doubles division and was a finalist in the Men's Professional Singles Division. The championship match of the Singles Division was not played due to windy weather conditions that hit Las Vegas on Sunday. Carson won the Singles Title at the 3 Wallball World Championships in 2010, 2011, & 2012. He is also a nine-time World Outdoor Racquetball champion, making him the most decorated player in the outdoor game. On the indoor courts, Rocky is currently ranked No. 2 on the International Racquetball Tour.
Racquetball legend Cliff Swain (Boston, Massachusetts) continued to add to his overflowing racquetball trophy case in winning the title in the Men's 40+ Professional Doubles Division. Swain is the record holder of the most tournament victories (71) on the International Racquetball Tour and finished the season as the top ranked player in the world six times. In 2003, Swain was inducted into the USA Racquetball Hall of Fame.
Jackie Paraiso (San Diego, California) doubled down in Las Vegas by winning the Mixed Professional Doubles Division and the Women's Professional Doubles Division. Paraiso was also a semifinalist in the Women's Professional Singles Division. Jackie has earned more appointments (25) to the US National Team than any other player — male or female. She holds 14 US National Doubles Titles and has won more than two dozen medals on the international stage.
Rocky, Cliff and Jackie will next take to the courts indoors at the 2013 US OPEN Racquetball Championships in October at the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. To follow all the players on the HEAD Penn team, visit facebook.com/headpennracquetball.

You are packing your tents and sleeping bags and your love for fun - and we bet the last thing on your mind is food. Well, it shouldn't be... if you want to keep those energy levels up, you need to eat!Food is mostly eclipsed by music or booze, but perhaps because
it's such a fundamental part of the experience we tend to forget it's
festival goers will remember the sensation of washing down a sarmie, made
from various non-perishable items, with a warm beer at lunch.
And don't forget the daily argument of which vendor to visit, which results
in eight people splitting up. And at least six of them ending up at the same
place anyway. The boerie roll stand.
you may even recognise the story of a friend who was drunk and refused to eat
anything but ice-cream all weekend.We're venturing into the trenches of mud and music to try and find the food
that rocks your world.

An Australian-designed motorcycle that runs purely on air has just been revealed.
The "O2 Pursuit" compressed air-powered motorbike has been designed by RMIT industrial design student Dean Benstead. Instead of a regular petrol powered engine, the O2 Pursuit uses an Australian-designed compressed air engine developed by EngineAir Australia.
The bike is about the size of a regular 250cc moto-cross two-wheeler, and uses a number of body components donated by Yamaha Australia.
Benstead says the concept offers motorbike riders some fuel for thought when it comes to filling up their rides.
"I wanted to explore the viability of compressed air as an alternative fuel, and my childhood experiences riding dirt bikes led me to design the motocross bike based around the Engineair engine," Benstead says.
He says his next model would likely take a different form, and would also use more high-tech lightweight parts to keep the weight down so it's "comparable to a heavy-duty mountain bike".
The bike will be on display at the Sydney Motorcycle and Scooter Show from November 25-27.

The positive news is helping the actor, 55, and wife Lisa, 51, remain hopeful and upbeat. "We're thrilled and grateful for the positive response Patrick has shown towards his treatment," the couple tell PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. "Also, we can't help but feel that all the prayers, meditations and good thoughts sent his way by everyone have made a difference. Thank you!" His spirits buoyed by the outpouring of goodwill, Swayze "is very focused," says Scouros, "and positive about what he has to do."

Home > Press > NIH funds next generation of DNA sequencing projects at ASU
DNA testing is transforming health care and medicine, but current technologies only give a snapshot of an individual's genetic makeup. Any patient wanting a complete picture of their inherited DNA, or genome, would drop their jaw at the sight of the bill - to the current tune of $10 million or more charged for every human or mammalian-sized genome sequenced.
Now, with a grant award from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), scientists at the Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University are expanding efforts to dramatically lower the cost of DNA sequencing.
The NHGRI, part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has set an ambitious target of $1,000 or less - a cost 10,000 times lower than current technology - to make genome sequencing a routine diagnostic tool in medical care. The reduced cost may allow doctors to tailor medical treatments to an individual's genetic profile for diagnosing, treating, and ultimately preventing many common diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and obesity.
ASU chemist Peiming Zhang and his collaborator Jian Gu have been awarded a $897,000 grant under this program for an ambitious DNA sequencing project that combines physics, chemistry and nanotechnology with engineering. The researchers have been charged with the daunting task of shrinking down the 13 year, $2.7 billion Human Genome Project to days.
"If you want to develop a technology to sequence an individual genome for $1,000, you have to think about using nanotechnology," said Zhang, associate research professor in the Center for Single Molecule Biophysics at the Biodesign Institute. "The technology is available now to pioneer a new approach to sequencing."
Much like the computer industry, DNA sequencing technology is driven by the mantra of faster, cheaper and more reliable. In the past generation, sequencing costs have fallen 100-fold, from roughly a dollar a DNA base to a penny, but are still far out of reach for the public.
Zhang's technological vision would enable scientists to sequence billions of base pairs of DNA in a single day. This is the size of an average mammalian genome and is approximately 10,000 times more bases per day than can be sequenced using current technologies. By increasing the speed of sequencing and reducing its cost, genetic research may develop a more significant role in everyday medical practice.
In Zhang's sequencing project, billions of base pairs of genomic DNA could be sequenced on a single, cookie crumb-sized one centimeter by one centimeter chip. The technique uses hybridization, a process of joining two complementary strands of DNA, to sequence DNA by applying a sample to single stranded DNA probes attached to a chip.
An atomic force microscope (AFM), like a caffeinated speed reader, can then rapidly scan the surface of the chip to see where DNA from the sample has hybridized to the probes. Wherever sample DNA binds to the probes, the sequence is registered.
"Traditional approaches to sequencing by hybridization are limited by the number of probes that can be placed on a chip," said Jian Gu, a research staff member in the Center for Applied NanoBioscience at the Biodesign Institute and co-leader of the project.
By using nanoprinting techniques developed by Gu, the researchers hope to increase the number probes they can fit on a chip. "Right now, we have a mechanical printing technology that could put down billions of probes on a chip surface at very low cost," said Gu.
It is estimated that a single base pair can be sequenced for every DNA probe, which means that optimizing the nanoprinting process is critical to the goal of a $1,000 genome, according to Zhang.
The researchers' first goal is a proof of principal for their approach. They plan to synthesize a universal DNA nanoarray on a 100 micrometer by 100 micrometer chip, about the size of a dust mite, by 2009.
The award to Zhang and his team was one of nine grants given by the NIH to achieve the $1,000 genome goal. Zhang's effort also joins two other ASU research teams, led by Stuart Lindsay and Peter Williams, who have more than $2 million in other DNA sequencing projects funded at ASU.
"There are currently only 36 grants in the entire NHGRI sequencing program, so it's quite remarkable that ASU has three of them, which is almost 10 percent of the program," Williams said.
Williams, professor of chemistry and biochemistry, is working on a $100,000 genome project, part of the five-year goal of the NHGRI to drop the current price to a hundredth of the cost. His goal is to selectively sequence genes known to be involved in disease in a matter of hours, and for a few hundred dollars.
Lindsay, who is director of the Biodesign Institute's Center for Single Molecule Biophysics, is engaged in a different separately funded $1,000 genome project. Lindsay is threading DNA through a molecular ring, in this case a sugar called cyclodextrin, that can read the DNA sequence by measuring the differences in friction as the molecule is pulled through the ring.
