Rapid, high-throughput sequencing of DNA and RNA is proving to be key for tumour profiling and understanding rare diseases. Hereditary cancer, for instance, has traditionally relied on DNA ...

which addresses current issues in sample preparation and provides a simplified procedure amenable to high-throughput workflows. Most second-generation sequencers use technologies for sequencing ...

Cancer is a disease of the genome, according to Dr. Elli Papaemmanuil, computational oncologist at MSK. By looking at the ...

The resulting DNA fragments are then separated by size using gel electrophoresis, and the sequence is determined by analyzing the pattern of bands on the gel. Next-generation sequencing technologies, ...

What is next-generation sequencing? Next-generation sequencing (often noted as NGS), describes the high-throughput technologies that can now determine the sequence of a given nucleic acid strand, such ...

This dynamic field has seen tremendous change in recent years. Leaders share their perspectives on what trends we can expect ...

This way, sequencing of complex and repetitive regions can be efficiently performed, and a single platform may be used to detect a wide range of genetic variants at low cost and high throughput. The ...

Illumina has begun rolling out a series of updates to its top-of-the-line DNA sequencer models, with the goal of making the ...
