Researchers have developed an ultra-mild bisulfite sequencing method (UMBS-seq) that preserves DNA integrity while delivering highly accurate methylation measurements. The new approach overcomes ...

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 ...

At a time when large-scale human genome analysis was not yet common, the Tohoku Medical Megabank Organization (ToMMo) launched its genome cohort study. After 10 years of operating this ambitious ...

An ambitious plan to sequence genomes for 1.85 million eukaryotic species on our planet is underway. It's a massive ...

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, ...

Genome sequencing has been used to determine how much genes influence human characteristics including height and weight, and ...

Researchers set a new world record for the fastest DNA sequencing, completing a whole genome in under four hours—a breakthrough with potential for faster, targeted care.

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 from the University of Queensland and Illumina analyzed DNA from 347,630 UK Biobank participants to determine how ...
