Stay up to date on the latest science with Brush Up Summaries. What Is Single Cell Sequencing? Single cell sequencing is a collection of methods that researchers use to isolate and analyze sequence ...

The world of cells is surprisingly noisy. Each cell carries unique genetic information, but when we try to measure cellular ...

This research, led by Prof. Haichen Wu from the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and Prof. Lei Liu from the Institute of High Energy Physics, CAS, alongside their ...

Sequencing the genome of single bacterial cells has long been technically difficult due to the seemingly incorrigible bias in the gene amplification stage of the process, making it hard to produce ...

What is Third-Generation Sequencing? Third-generation sequencing, also known as long-read sequencing, refers to the latest advancements in DNA sequencing technologies that enable the analysis of ...

Patients with cancer are increasingly having tumor DNA sequenced: The technology has improved, prices have dropped, and such sequencing can identify a new treatment approach. But some investigators ...

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 ...

Researchers from the Belgian Federal Institute Sciensano, as part of the DARWIN project, have developed a proof-of-concept for next generation detection methods of genome-edited organisms.

For decades, scientists have struggled to untangle the genetic complexity of crops with multiple chromosome sets.
