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 ...

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 ...

The laws of inheritance are quite unknown,” Charles Darwin acknowledged in 1859. The discovery of DNA’s shape altered how we ...

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 ...

DNA methylation is a key epigenome component that helps dictate how genes are expressed, contributing to normal cell and tissue differentiation during development, as well as the process of biological ...

Emerging methods are improving the ability to identify even highly degraded human remains. By Damien Cave Reporting from Hanoi, Vietnam The world is facing an abundance of tragic events that produce ...

"Fueled by advances in NGS and precision medicine, China’s DNA sequencing market sees rapid growth amid strong government support, rising clinical applications, and innovation hubs in Guangdong, ...
