Next generation sequencing (NGS) can globally interrogate the genetic composition of biological samples in an unbiased yet sensitive manner. Researchers from Tulane University utilized the capabilities of NGS to investigate the reported association between glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and human cytomegalovirus ...
