A new study presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) demonstrates that monitoring circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can refine ...

DNA sequencing is a set of laboratory methods for determining the precise linear order of nucleotides (A, C, G, T) in a DNA molecule. Core methodological classes include Sanger sequencing, which uses ...

At a time when large-scale human genome analysis was not yet common, the Tohoku Medical Megabank Organization (ToMMo) launched its genome cohort study. After ten years of operating this ambitious ...

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 ...

A pioneering partnership between researchers from The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has produced a novel nanopore sensing platform for ...

In 1995, with the Human Genome Project underway, sequencing was all the rage. Scientists working on the project cloned short fragments of the whole genome and used Sanger sequencing to determine the ...
