NASA is not often known for making the best use of existing COTS (commercial off the shelf technology) aboard the ISS. Then again, sometimes they are. This is an example of when the agency really ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The power of artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced computing has made it possible to design genetic sequences encoding ...

Automated library preparation is critical for reducing errors, increasing repeatability, and reducing hands-on time, allowing researchers to generate sequence data from DNA more quickly. The CyBio ...

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 ...

PacBio has announced plans to enhance its methylation detection capabilities in HiFi sequencing by licensing advanced methods from Professor Dennis Lo and his team at The Chinese University of Hong ...

When it comes to finding answers, every moment counts—especially in critical care settings like the neonatal and pediatric intensive care units (NICU and PICU). Although rapid genetic tests, whether ...
