The power of artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced computing has made it possible to design genetic sequences encoding ...

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

What is Nanopore DNA Sequencing? Nanopore DNA sequencing is a cutting-edge technology that enables the direct, real-time analysis of long DNA or RNA fragments. Unlike conventional sequencing methods ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed two innovative deep-learning ...

Viral DNA that is usually dismissed when sequencing the human genome could help to uncover useful information about complex ...

Miami University’s Center for Bioinformatics and Functional Genomics (CBFG) has become one of the first institutions in the region to acquire the PacBio VEGA Benchtop System — a cutting-edge DNA ...

DNA methylation is a highly studied epigenetic modification that is involved in regulating genome function and plays fundamental roles in development and disease. 1 It is linked to a broad range of ...

Roche has put forward a new approach to genetic analysis, which it describes as sequencing-by-expansion—a proprietary method that pulls apart the DNA molecule and amplifies the signal of each ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This enables rapid and precise analysis of biological compounds, such as sugars, ...

A whole-genome sequencing approach shows early promise over current commercial methods for identifying more patients likely to benefit from PARP inhibitor cancer treatments, according to a study led ...

Through genomic sequencing and analysis, clinicians can identify specific mutations present in a patient’s cancer cells and deliver personalized treatment based on the genetic information. Increased ...
