Two names worth considering here are Thermo Fisher Scientific (NYSE: TMO ) and Illumina (NASDAQ: ILMN ) . Thermo Fisher makes the list as it's in the process of purchasing Life Technologies (NASDAQ: LIFE ) for $13.6 billion. In early 2012, Life Technologies introduced the Benchtop Ion Proton Sequencer, which is capable of delivering same-day genome results for just $1,000! Illumina, on the other hand, has researchers' bases covered from all ends. It offers four high-end sequencing machines, a lower-priced sequencer (MiSeq), and can handle cloud-based data to formulate decoding. These two companies could be the cornerstone of nCoV research!
