Bosco is in the midst of moving his lab back to Brazil but you might try emailing either him or Tom Fleisher at the NIH to see whether they are doing this there.

Alternatively, there are a number of clinical labs doing it in order to profile tumors:

Dear Dr. Torgerson,

Do you know where can I send a DNA sample for NRAS and KRAS sequencing?

Juan Carlos
