To go to school in America as an international, you have to have 2 years worth of tuition sitting in your parent's bank account. So, only the rich (and probably highly educated) can afford to come. Because of this, the US is selecting only rich kids. (aka perpetuating the myth of the model minority)

Hey! Which company had the greatest database for Asians? I’m adopted and want to find my birth parents.

I mean, when you’re sequencing in general it’s usually good if they trim off the primers and adaptors and cluster your scaffolds (if shotgun sequencing). You’d have to have enough expertise and the right programs (and maybe access to a supercomputer cluster depending on file size) to get anything out of your “raw” data.

How has the current political climate changed (or not changed) your job/career? Do you feel like you have different expectations? Do you feel like your work is more under scrutiny? What feelings do you get when you do "get your hands dirty" and deport someone? Do you think about how it could "ruin" their life? What's your opinion on how to "fix" the current immigration system (from an insider perspective)?

Same; looking to find a company with the most complete Asian/Pacific Islander database.
