Sequencing: is the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence - the order of nucleotides in DNA. It includes any method or technology that is used to determine the order of the four bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine.
Target selection is arguably the most important decision in all drug discovery and development activities. No amount of great science can overcome the selection of the wrong target. The rapid...
Patients with chromosomal rearrangements resulting in fusion proteins are among the most responsive to published targeted therapy. For example, targeting of the EML4-ALK fusion in non-small c...
In this webinar, we will describe a comprehensive approach for NGS-based marker discovery and the successful migration of these markers to targeted NGS assays using low-quality (FFPE) and low...
Rare disorder analysis has been facilitated by the declining cost of sequencing. Despite numerous success stories the underlying cause remains unexplained in >50% cases, emphasizing the ne...
When whole genome and whole exome sequencing are introduced into health care, and offered directly to consumers in commercial settings, the landscape of genetic testing will drastically chang...
DNASTAR offers an integrated suite of software for assembling and analyzing sequence data from all major next-generation sequencing platforms. DNASTAR software supports a variety of key workf...
Coastal Genomics and the Hamilton Company have teamed up to combine the NIMBUS 96 channel platform with Ranger Technology to automate high throughput agarose gel electrophoresis. The new NIM...
Medical applications of genetics and genomics have been advancing dramatically since completion of the sequencing of the human genome. The cost of DNA sequencing has plummeted, leading to the...
For personalized genomic medicine (PGM) to be readily adopted into clinical practice, there is a need for a multidisciplinary team, and a need to educate health care professionals and the...
In this presentation I describe pathway based analyses of genotyping data to identify pathways related to the development of complex diseases, with a focus on lung cancer and selected autoimm...
