Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto researchers are reporting that targeted RNA sequencing can detect clinically actionable alterations in 87% of tumors and provide decisive findings where DNA-seq ...

RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful supplement to DNA sequencing for Mendelian disease diagnosis, but clinical translation of diagnostic RNA-seq has not been widely achieved. Researchers at ...

Launched in 1990, The Human Genome Project was a monumental effort to sequence and analyze the entire human genome to understand how genetics influence health. While the Human Genome Project helped ...

Years of experiments and databases filled with RNA-seq results belie the simple reality that, until fairly recently, it was impossible to analyze RNA directly. The RNA-seq studies performed with ...

If you want to know what a cell, tissue, or organism is doing, molecularly speaking, you don’t look at its genome; you’ve got to look further downstream. One option: the transcriptome. One step beyond ...
