Diagnostics Metagenomics hits the clinic to diagnose CNS infections Whole genome metagenomics is better than the standard of care in detecting the causal bugs of CNS infections
Transcriptomics Transcriptomics is better with long-reads Spoiler Alert: The holy grail of transcriptomics is long-reads.
Molecular Biology Molecular Biology is the offspring of biochemistry and genetics The field of molecular biology was born in 1941 through the marriage of genetics and biochemistry.
Nanopores Nanopores are getting on the rapid NICU/PICU sequencing bandwagon Nanopores take on rapid neonatal sequencing
Transcriptomics New tech always has risks and limitations, single-cell and spatial transcriptomics are no exception Single-Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics: Risks, Limitations, and Questions to Ask
Historical Paper Review A wormy discovery becomes a knockout laboratory technique One of the best ways to figure out what a gene does is to get rid of it and see what happens.
Artificial Intelligence AI takes on virus evolution AI to the rescue: using protein structural similarities to track virus evolution.
Transcriptomics Applications of single-cell and spatial transcriptomics Single cell and spatial transcriptomics: Let's explore some applications!
Historical Paper Review Fred Sanger didn't get his first Nobel for DNA sequencing Fred Sanger received a Nobel Prize for his work with Insulin. As the father of DNA sequencing, this surely was for insulin's nucleic acid sequence? It wasn't.
Artificial Intelligence A USB drive? Nah, an epigenetic drive! DNA data storage is coming for all of your bits (but now with an epigenetic spin)!
Transcriptomics Put on your dive gear: we're going deep on single-cell and spatial transcriptomics methods! A not-so-deep dive into Single Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics
Historical Paper Review Linus Pauling molecularly characterized the first Mendelian Disease: Sickle Cell Anemia Sickle Cell Anemia was the first inherited disease to be molecularly characterized. It was done in 1949 using a revolutionary new method: electrophoresis.
Longevity Cutting calories extends life, but not for the reasons you might think Would you cut 40% of your caloric intake if it meant you'd live 40% longer?
