Market Outlook and Growth TrajectoryThe global next generation sequencing market is poised to experience robust expansion, registering an estimated growth rate of around 15% over the next five years.

Human pluripotent stem-cells (HPSCs)—including human embryonic stem-cells and human induced pluripotent stem-cells—are reshaping the landscape of regenerative medicine.1,2 In Parkinson's disease, ...

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 ...

Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind to the genome. Transposons play critical roles in immune ...

TEL AVIV, Israel & LEHI, Utah & HOUSTON & FREMONT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MyHeritage, the leading global platform for family history and DNA testing, announced today a landmark move to Whole Genome ...

A research team led by the A*STAR Genome Institute of Singapore (A*STAR GIS) have developed a method to accurately and efficiently read DNA containing non-standard bases — a task once thought too ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

While men may be able to have children much later than women, doing so could come with an increased risk of inherited disease for their children. Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute have ...

Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...

Marmosets are valuable non-human primate models, however their unique reproduction results in high levels of blood chimerism, making blood unreliable for DNA sequencing. Hair follicles have lower ...

We’re celebrating 180 years of Scientific American. Explore our legacy of discovery and look ahead to the future. In 1957, just four years after Francis Crick and other scientists solved the riddle of ...
