Gene Sequencing Market Trends



  • Increasing number of infectious diseases is driving the market growth


The market CAGR is being driven by an increase in the number of infectious illness cases and a rise in the need for effective medications and vaccines. The demand for pharmaceutical and therapeutic treatments, such as vaccines, has also aided the rapid growth of the global genome sequencing market. After a comprehensive examination of the SARS-CoV-2 virus's genome (RNA), several industry players successfully created a vaccine to ward off infection due to government support. Several factors, including high costs, process reliability, and the potential for human mortality from COVID-19, have driven recent developments in genome sequencing. These factors also contributed to the growth of the worldwide genome sequencing market in the following years. For instance, the entire human genome project, which will be used to improve genome sequencing technology, received USD 4435 million from government agencies, including the National Institutes for Health in the United States.


There is expected to be a significant increase in cancer cases, which is good news for the growth of the oncology industry. As the prevalence of cancer rises, the need for effective patient classification is driving research efforts to identify biomarkers and develop companion diagnostics. Researching cancer-related illnesses in novel ways is now feasible due to gene sequencing technology advances. With targeted medications becoming the new standard of care in oncology, NGS-driven diagnostics are often considered to guide the choice of treatments to improve patient outcomes. Consequently, there will be a greater demand for NGS sequencers in cancer research institutes. The industry is expected to grow as long as clinical gene sequencing is successfully used to diagnose and treat uncommon genetic diseases.


The global market for gene sequencing is primarily driven by the proliferation of advanced technical platforms and enhanced genomic tools. Continuous improvements in quicker sequencing techniques and various methodologies to handle the massive amounts of data created are speeding up the analysts' ability to evaluate microbial networks from an infinite diversity of habitats. The increasing usability of advanced bioinformatics tools, high throughput sequencing (HTS) techniques, the recovery of new drugs, and the creation of affordable innovations such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) are driving the market's expansion. Thus, driving the gene sequencing market revenue.
