[Prospects for applications in human health of nanopore-based sequencing].

High throughput sequencing has opened up new clinical opportunities moving towards a medicine of precision. Oncology, infectious diseases or human genomics, many applications have been developed in recent years. The introduction of a third generation of nanopore-based sequencing technology, addressing some of the weaknesses of the previous generation, heralds a new revolution. Portability, real time, long reads and marginal investment costs, these promising new technologies point to a new shift of paradigm. What are the perspectives opened up by nanopores for clinical applications?
