Bioengineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a powerful new technology that can map the entire ...

The human genome is just over 6 feet 8 inches long, which is 2 inches taller than the average NBA basketball player and in total, a lot of nucleotides! But what if the amount of sequence diversity ...

Alida Biosciences’ EpiPlex platform uses robust assay controls and specialized bioinformatics to detect RNA modification, genomic coordinates, and relative quantity.

Researchers introduce a method for analyzing RNA sequencing data genome-wide using a 'pantranscriptome,' which combines a transcriptome and a pangenome, creating a richer reference that can address ...
