Haoyu Cheng, Ph.D., assistant professor of biomedical informatics and data science at Yale School of Medicine, has developed a new algorithm capable of building complete human genomes using standard ...

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 ...

Miami University’s Center for Bioinformatics and Functional Genomics (CBFG) has become one of the first institutions in the region to acquire the PacBio VEGA Benchtop System — a cutting-edge DNA ...

Illumina is welcoming a new addition to its DNA sequencing lineup, with a pair of accessible benchtop instruments that incorporate the tech and chemistry used by its largest, top-of-the-line machines.

This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

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 ...

Engineered DNA can store massive amounts of data while also encrypting it, opening the door to ultra-secure, long-term ...
