zbli was reflecting on your comment about parkinson's disease. if you go to a typical neurology clinic in the country, you'll be seen once every six months for 30 minutes. i'd argue for being seen for five minutes a day for six month to adjust your medications would be time and money better spent and would save that poor family, you know, 60 to 70 hours of travel and recovery and the debilitating nature of the disease makes ambulation difficult. so there are better ways to spend even the dollars that we're spending now. >> and that's actually a fascinating very practical point. why aren't we seeing somebody -- what are the to doing it the way you describe. >> the first is you don't get paid. the system doesn't get paid, the doctor doesn't get paid. the patient spends a lot of money taking the day off from work, having a loved one come with them, driving, parking, waiting in the waiting room for one, two hours, not being able to see someone at night or a time that's convenient for them. it's really doctor-centered care or helicopter-centered care.

medical researcher th eers that underst genomics is a core driver of lots and lots of diseases like parkinson's and alzheimer's. they want to do more and more research to understand the genomic drivers of those disease. as we lower the price points it takes to do sequencing you see researchers driving bigger and bigger experiments to understand that. the core research market continues to be a growth driver. some are in the clinical space where we have non-invasive prenatal tests, it's had tremendous growth over the last couple years. people are realizing you can replace more dangerous tests with safer blood tests. so we have a big uptick in the clinic in areas like reproductive health and oncology. then we have other applied markets, the consumer market with customers like ancestry or 23 and me that are targeting consumers who are interested in understanding the genomic data behind their ancestry or predisposition to certain conditions. we are also seeing growth in the agriculture space. we have those applied markets, clinical markets, research markets. >> you mentioned research as a key driver
