The research on these abnormal white blood cells, when combined with whole genome sequencing, will provide the scientists with the template to now take a similar, more detailed look at other cancers.

Whole genome sequencing did take longer to return results on average -- 6.1 days versus 4.2 days for NewbornDx -- but it actually took less time for the most urgent cases (3.3 versus 4 days), the ...

Low-depth whole-genome sequencing assays had similar detection rates for microscopic copy number variants as karyotyping, and detected an additional 2.3% of submicroscopic pathogenic copy number ...

GeneDx announced major enhancements to its whole genome sequencing offering. The new features include faster turnaround time for rapid whole genome sequencing, buccal samples, and repeat ...

Radoje T. Drmanac, PhD. Radoje T. Drmanac, PhD, CSO at Complete Genomics, helped found the company in 2006. “We had technologies that we thought would conduct whole-genome sequencing, personal ...

In a study published in Nature Medicine, researchers developed a bioinformatics pipeline for integrating whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from 13,880 tumors with matching patient clinical data. 1 ...

A team of gene therapists, oncologists, genetic sequencing experts and neurosurgeons affiliated with a host of institutions in the U.S. and one in Sweden has uncovered gene variants that appear to ...

"I would be surprised if 5 to 10 years from now, whole genome isn't what we're doing with those fetal cases," Hackney said. Patients with fetal structural anomalies were recruited from five U.S ...
