Genome science refers to the study of the genome, and organism's complete set of DNA which includes all of its genes. Genome constrasts with genetics, the latter of which refers to the study of one specific gene and their role in inheritance.
Complex genomes, including the human genome, contain ‘dark’ regions that standard short-read sequencing technologies do not adequately resolve—overlooking many variants tha...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease that accounts for 10-20% of all breast cancer cases diagnosed annually in the U.S.1. Despite its prevalence, TNBC remains resist...
Within the clinical arena, the oncology community has led the way in the early adoption of next generation sequencing. NGS is in widespread use in clinical cancer research and is now beginni...
Careful and deliberate packaging of the genome is essential to ensuring correct and timely transcriptional programs. Chromatin conformation capture (3C and Hi-C) is a powerful approach for c...
The introduction of PacBio HiFi sequence reads, which are both long (up to 25 kb currently) and accurate (>99%) at the individual single-molecule sequence read level, has allowed for adva...
Karyomapping, a technique for preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) of single gene disorders, involves using very few or single cells, and comes with challenges due to limited amounts of s...
Modern biomedical research is being driven by large scale genetic and proteomic research to identify new targets for the study of disease mechanisms. While these techniques have been incredi...
The versatility of standard PCR and qPCR is well known. Digital PCR is now taking this to a whole new level. The power of partitioning enables you to explore new frontiers which have been li...
Long-read DNA sequencing technologies such as the Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) and Oxford Nanopore (ONT) platforms, have demonstrated enhanced detection of genomic variation, including Singl...
Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) emerged to characterize gene expression differences between individual cells, allowing a higher resolution look at mRNA abundance than bulk RNA- seq. H...
Structural variation within plant genomes has fueled domestication and selection of traits critical for modern breeding of crop plants. Nevertheless, dissecting the diversity of structural v...
Learning Objectives: 1. Learn why the complexity and repetitive structure of the human genome makes it impossible to detect all structural variants using short-read sequencing 2. Learn how h...
Since the introduction of single cell sequencing techniques to the genomics community, interest in its use has grown exponentially and the number of single cell publications has exploded. Th...
