Powerful new applications of what is known as next-generation sequencing are now helping with identification of degraded ...
Emboldened by the success of next-generation sequencing, scientists are pursuing the holy grail of genomics—the '$1,000 genome'—with single-molecule approaches. Nathan Blow reports.
The powerful method, called Chem-map, lifts the veil of this genomic black box by enabling researchers to detect where small molecule drugs interact with their targets on the DNA genome.

How fast does human DNA mutate? Scientists finally know
A deeper understanding of how DNA changes over generations helps scientists learn why people differ and how diseases develop.
Affinity-based techniques like methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-seq) are yet another strategy. This method uses antibodies to enrich for methylated DNA, reducing sequencing ...
Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This enables rapid and precise analysis of biological compounds, such as sugars ...
With its innovative fur-based DNA sequencing method—a first in pet science—Darwin’s Cats is making it easier than ever to contribute to genetics research to improve the health and well-being ...
Technology to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance The MHRA said that since 2024, the new DNA sequencing method has been used to analyse over 2000 patient samples across seven London hospitals.
