RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful tool in diagnosing Mendelian disorders, but the optimized sequencing depth for this technology has not yet been determined. In a new study published in the ...

ctDNA test, which is an important aspect in liquid biopsy, offers a non-invasive alternative to tissue biopsies for cancer diagnosis and monitoring. Ultra-deep ctDNA sequencing enabling the detection ...

An international research team has developed a new genomic technique that can track the spread of multiple superbugs in a hospital simultaneously. In a proof-of-concept study, scientists at the ...

This image illustrates the typical steps in next-generation sequencing (excluding single-molecule sequencing methods). The process begins with isolating genomic DNA (a) and breaking it into short ...
