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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

In his Nobel Prize acceptance speech in 1980, genomics pioneer Fred Sanger described science as “a voyage of discovery into ...

Scientists have developed a new technique that could change how we design DNA for ...

Model predicts effect of mutations on sequences up to 1 million base pairs in length and is adept at tackling complex ...

Sequencing an entirely complete human genome has been the work of decades. Twenty years ago, the Human Genome Project (HGP) declared their work finished, with an asterisk. Even a decade later, fully ...

For the first time ever, DNA was successfully sequenced in microgravity as part of the Biomolecule Sequencer experiment performed by NASA astronaut Kate Rubins this weekend aboard the International ...

Daniel Svensson and Anna-Mia Johansson take a break from DNA extractions to discuss new results. Both are research engineers at the Department of Ecology, Environment and Geoscience, Umeå University, ...
