A few years ago, a new NGS platform being announced at the Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) meeting would not have been a surprise; multiple new instruments entered the NGS arena over ...

One in every 10 people worldwide is impacted by a rare genetic disease but about 50% of them remain undiagnosed despite rapid increases in genetic technology and testing. Even when a person does have ...

There is a revolution taking place in the field of genomics. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is getting faster and less expensive with better computational tools, enabling researchers to sequence ...

In a development that could accelerate the discovery of new diagnostics and treatments, researchers have developed a versatile and low-cost technology for targeted sequencing of full-length RNA ...

Protein sequencing presents different challenges than nucleic acid sequencing, meaning that proteomics has yet to benefit as much as genomics from the next-generation sequencing revolution. However, ...

A new study shows that long-read sequencing has the potential to improve the rate of diagnosis while reducing the time to diagnosis from years to days -- in a single test and at a much lower cost. One ...
