In just a few decades, DNA sequencing technologies evolved from slow, manual processes to rapid, automated ones, making ...

SAVANA uses a machine learning algorithm to identify cancer-specific structural variations and copy number aberrations in long-read DNA sequencing data. The complex structure of cancer genomes means ...

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 ...

Scaffolded DNA and RNA origami is a technique that allows scientists to build tiny, highly precise two- and three-dimensional ...

When it comes to finding answers, every moment counts—especially in critical care settings like the neonatal and pediatric intensive care units (NICU and PICU). Although rapid genetic tests, whether ...

A breakthrough by researchers at Peter Mac will allow scientists to detect, analyze and profile cancer tumors in patients via a simple blood test. The Dawson lab at Peter Mac has developed a method ...

Data keeps growing exponentially, driving demand for better memory storage solutions. Synthetic DNA is a strong candidate to ...
