Accurately sequence 100 Human Genomes in 10 Days for $10 Million.  Actual Archon content starts around 3:25:

"The field of personalized medicine is still in its infancy and the day when everyone has access to their own personal genome is still a long way off.

Finding the genetic factors that predispose someone to disease, and how they are likely to respond to different treatments may be determined not by one gene but by many genes interacting with each other. Combing through this complicated genetic map is expensive and time consuming.

It currently costs millions of dollars and takes many months to sequence an individual genome. It is imperative that we greatly reduce the cost and increase the speed of human genome sequencing; then, and only then, can the promise of personalized medicine be realized.

This is the goal of the Archon X PRIZE for Genomics."

"Neuroscientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Mass., recently developed a way to turn off abnormally active brain cells using multiple colors of light. This research could prove useful for managing disorders including chronic pain, epilepsy, brain injury and Parkinson's disease"
