MyOme, a leader in clinical whole-genome analysis, announced an advancement in rare disease diagnostics at the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Annual Meeting. By integrating ...

DNA methylation is a highly studied epigenetic modification that is involved in regulating genome function and plays fundamental roles in development and disease. 1 It is linked to a broad range of ...

Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) sequence analysis to screen for fetal aneuploidy can incidentally detect maternal cancer. Additional data are needed to identify DNA-sequencing patterns and other biomarkers that ...

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 ...

MASSIVELY parallel sequencing (MPS) has transformed forensic DNA analysis by allowing scientists to examine multiple DNA ...

A study has traced thousands of conserved regulatory elements back 300 million years, revealing deep principles of plant ...

Your next favorite true crime podcast might have some new forensics jargon to make sense of. Researchers in Australia have developed a new way to identify humans – similar to how we do with DNA and ...
