Published in Nature Communications, a new study led by the University of Minnesota Medical School and Duke University found ...

Next-generation DNA sequencing has started a revolution in genomics and created the opportunity for large-scale sequencing projects, such as the recently announced 1,000 Genomes Project—an ...

Use of a standardized cell-free (cf)DNA-sequencing and cancer-screening protocol detected cancer in nearly half of pregnant ...

A 30-year-old cold case was solved after DNA sequencing brought police to an answer on the identification of a man.

When it comes to species diversity, the Earth is nearly unthinkable. Between two and three million species have been identified by scientists, but there are many more about which people know nothing.

DNA sequencing is the process used for determining the order of the nucleotide bases—adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine—in a molecule of DNA. DNA sequencers are scientific instruments ...

Imagine a world where your genetic code isn’t just a string of letters, but a personalized roadmap to better health and ...

Australian Antarctic Program scientists have used DNA technology to help identify threatened albatross, petrel and shearwater ...

Automated library preparation is critical for reducing errors, increasing repeatability, and reducing hands-on time, allowing researchers to generate sequence data from DNA more quickly.

Overall, the concurrent use of RNA and DNA sequencing resulted in a 15.3% increase in identifying patients with actionable variants and more than doubled the detection of emerging, rare structural ...
