In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

Although it is an important technology for studying genomes, DNA sequencing was initially accomplished in 1977 by Frederick Sanger. Since its conception, the technology has developed rapidly. Alvaro G ...

The newest DNA sequencing technology from Swiss multinational Roche doesn’t measure DNA directly but in fact analyzes a different polymer altogether. The technology is not yet available for sale, but ...

Scientists sequence hundreds of thousands of genomes for crucial large-scale research efforts, such as population genomics initiatives that process more than 10,000 samples per year, to explore ...

Researchers from the Henry and Marilyn Taub Faculty of Computer Science have developed an AI-based method that accelerates DNA-based data retrieval by three orders of magnitude while significantly ...

(Nanowerk News) Next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) - the same technology which is powering the development of tailor-made medicines, cancer diagnostics, infectious disease tracking, and gene ...
