This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

Cornell researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind ...

Genetic mutations in human DNA can prevent proteins that perform important functions in the body from being formed correctly. This can lead to serious disorders that cause disease or even disability.

DNA is the molecular basis of heredity, the inherited traits that pass between generations in a person's family tree. Embodied in the sequence of base pairs, DNA carries information between ...

Whole-genome sequencing reads every DNA base. This shifts medicine from diagnosing disease based on symptoms to molecular ...

In a breakthrough that redefines both speed and clinical potential, a new world record for the fastest human whole genome sequencing has been set. Think of all the things that can be done in four ...

Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move ...

A team from the Andalusian Center for Molecular Biology and Regenerative Medicine (CABIMER) has developed an innovative ...

When it comes to critical care for newborns, being able to act fast is of the utmost importance, which is why this new DNA ...

Genetic sequencing can be expensive, and sometimes it can give us some information about our health or families. Other times, claims that genetic sequencing can improve health might be greeted with ...
