The technology, called SiMSen-Seq, could aid in detecting the recurrence of cancers, catching possible disease relapses faster than current methods and improving patient outcomes

Program brings whole genome sequencing and other “omic” technologies that monitor the expression of the genome in response to the environment to the forefront of clinical research

DNA sequencing keeps getting faster and covering more bases, and today’s fastest approach is  massively parallel sequencing (MPS)—also known as next-generation sequencing.

Consumers now can order simple, inexpensive, mail-in genetic tests to learn more about health risks, inherited traits, and ancestry. But could that information do more harm than good?

Comparing the proteins of humans and these other mammals is already providing researchers with a wealth of new information about how the human body works

There is immense potential for the genome sequence to help scientists understand quinoa and therefore modify it for more widespread, commercial use

New facility will bring genomics and systems biology together under one roof

HHMI scientists develop a much-needed genetic resource that is aiding development of wheat plants with improved traits

A national consortium of clinical geneticists is studying the ins and outs of potentially using genome sequencing for newborn health screenings and beyond

The research is a major step forward for efforts to study the genetic basis of adaptation and evolution
