NGS: (Next-generation sequencing) also known as high-throughput sequencing, is the catch-all term used to illustrate a number of different modern sequencing technologies including: Illumina (Solexa) sequencing. Roche 454 sequencing. Ion torrent: Proton / PGM sequencing.
Fusion genes are hybrid genes formed by the fusion of two separate genes. Translocation, interstitial deletion and chromosomal inversions are some of the genetic events that can lead to the f...
Sanger sequencing and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods have been the standard molecular methods in clinical diagnostics for decades. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology r...
Whole genome and exome sequencing is being widely used to identify disease-causing variants in patients with hereditary and rare diseases. Discovering the true disease-causing variants often...

Hardly anyone would run an RNA gel without a ladder, but transcriptomes are mostly sequenced without ...
Tumors often evade immune destruction by adapting and circumventing immune checkpoints to create resistance. This adaptive immunity can be reversed to stimulate the endogenous immune re...
Tumor heterogeneity has been known for a while but quantifying heterogeneity is still a challenge. NGS is the method of choice in the analysis of tumor heterogeneity, however, there are...

As genetic testing becomes more pervasive, many clinical and pathology laboratories see next generation sequencing (NG...
The global trend towards industrialization and urbanization has led to ever more people living and working indoors. Some studies estimate that humans in industrialized countries spend as much...
Accelerating discoveries to improve human and environmental health often require the implementation of niche applications that may involve complex processes and working with challenging sampl...
This presentation is a rebroadcast of a previous webinar with live Q&A. Please confirm the start time and date in your time zone. We’ve included several examples below for your re...
DNA and RNA sequencing sample preparation can involve many tedious and error prone steps. Liquid handling automation solutions can help standardize your processes and achieve more consistent ...
Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are a group of more than 250 genetic disorders that disrupt the immune system, resulting in susceptibility to life-threatening infections, autoimmune disease...
I will be discussing the following subjects in my presentation: Update from 2015 PAMA Proposed (or Final Rule) FDA Regulation of LDTs Change to Physician Payment and impact on diagn...
Generating NGS data you can trust is highly reliant on the quality of the library sample that’s sequenced. NGS sample prep has become more streamlined, but it’s still a labo...
Targeted sequencing assays are increasingly used to identify tumor mutations that guide therapeutic decisions. Interpretation of a cancer variant’s origin and therapeutic impact poses a...
In order to realize the benefits of personalized cancer therapy, increasing demands are placed upon clinical laboratories to provide timely, comprehensive, clinically actionable, and analytic...
With the ever increasing value of circulating cell-free and FFPE applications in the genomics industry today, we will present sample prep and collection guidelines to ensure that the quantity...
The rapid implementation of next generation sequencing is changing how genetics and genomics are applied in a clinical setting. However, the quickly evolving technology can be challenging to...
Human breast tumors have been shown to exhibit extensive inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. While recent advances in genomic technologies have allowed us to deconvolute this heterogeneity,...
Emerging technologies facilitate basic science research, but their value in regulatory applications requires rigorous assessment and consensus within the research community. Next-generation s...
DNASTAR offers an integrated suite of software for accurate assembly and analysis of sequence data from all major next-generation sequencing platforms supporting key workflows including de no...
Library preparation for Nanopore sequencing is a very flexible process. There are many ways in which a sequencing template, or other analyte, can be presented to a nanopore for analysis. PCR...
Oncologists and pathologists are increasingly utilizing information on genomic alterations in tumors to help guide patient care and treatment. Personalis, Inc., a genomic sequencing and inter...
Cancer remains the second leading cause of death in the United States. Most tumors arise from a myriad of genetic changes that dysregulate cell growth and prompt survival. Ident...
