In a single experiment, scientists can decipher the entire genomes of many patient samples, animal models, or cultured cells.

Studying endangered animal species without disturbing them and disrupting their natural habitat could be highly advantageous, ...

Cornell 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 response, ...

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 ...

Routine newborn screening (NBS) has transformed early disease detection. However, traditional biochemical tests limit the ...

PacBio has announced a new study published in Nature Communications that presents an innovative method for analyzing complex regions of the human genome, particularly segmental duplications that have ...

Bacteria are among the most diverse lifeforms on Earth, so it’s no surprise that their genomes have yielded a treasure trove of fascinating discoveries. The study of bacterial genomes has led to the ...
