A whole-genome sequencing approach shows early promise over current commercial methods for identifying more patients likely ...

The landscape of next-generation sequencing (NGS) continues to be defined by astonishing technological progress. We continue ...

Validated next-generation sequencing soon will become necessary in ensuring the safety and efficacy of cell and gene ...

For decades, scientists have struggled to untangle the genetic complexity of crops with multiple chromosome sets. Now, researchers have unveiled a cost-effective sequencing method, dpMIG-seq, that ...

Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is not necessarily a solution for someone with a rare, monogenic disease. Indeed, more than half of families with suspected rare monogenic diseases do not have an answer ...

Community-developed approach combines multi-contact 3C with HiFi sequencing to deliver haplotype-resolved assemblies from ...

A novel liquid biopsy technology is set to advance cancer diagnostics and monitoring by overcoming the long-standing challenge of simultaneously achieving high sensitivity, broad coverage, and simple ...

A new study shows that long-read sequencing has the potential to improve the rate of diagnosis while reducing the time to diagnosis from years to days -- in a single test and at a much lower cost. One ...

Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind to the genome. Transposons play critical roles in immune ...
