Now, for only the cost of a few dozen cheeseburgers, you could have a fully sequenced human genome. Illumina is rolling out a new line of DNA analyzers that it says can read a person’s genetic code ...

Ultima Genomics, an upstart some observers have called a “dark horse” in the world of DNA sequencing, will soon launch a line of high-power instruments that can read a human genome for as little as ...

Cornell researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind to the genome. Transposons play critical roles in immune response, ...

The DNA inside of living organisms is packed with information, so much so that it's hard to search genetic databases, but there may be a solution.

The “pangenome,” which collated genetic sequences from 47 people of diverse ethnic backgrounds, could greatly expand the reach of personalized medicine. The new pangenome reference resembles a corn ...
