RNA-seq using NGS (next-generation) sequencing enables you to look beyond what you see with microarray research. Learn in this 3 minute video how the Transcriptome sequencing works and overcomes a number of limitations inherent in microarray research to sequence all ...

The Staudt laboratory at NCI performs a number of different genomics methodologies to discover oncogenic mechanisms in lymphoma, all of which require high-throughput DNA sequencing. Specifically, the laboratory developed loss-of-function genetic screens to discover new molecular targets in cancer using ...

Interpretation of variants present in complete genomes or exomes reveals numerous sequence changes, only a fraction of which are likely to be pathogenic. Mutations have been traditionally inferred from allele frequencies and inheritance patterns in such data. Variants predicted to ...

Technology and software improvements in the last decade now provide methodologies to access the genome sequence of not only a single accession, but also multiple accessions of plant species. This provides a means to interrogate species diversity at the genome ...
