Data quality describes how well a set of data serves the purpose it represents. Data quality is measured by considering a series of characteristics including accuracy, validity, and consistency. The completeness and uniqueness of the data is also considered when assessing data quality.

A quick look at the most recent new drug filings reveals how much interest there is in biologically derived molecules as therapeutic agents. The majority of the filings are for New Biological...
Generating NGS data you can trust is highly reliant on the quality of the library sample that’s sequenced. NGS sample prep has become more streamlined, but it’s still a labo...
As millions of people all over the world get their genome sequenced, physicians and researchers as well as the individuals themselves will want to ask questions of these data. To ask question...
Human breast tumors have been shown to exhibit extensive inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. While recent advances in genomic technologies have allowed us to deconvolute this heterogeneity,...
Emerging technologies facilitate basic science research, but their value in regulatory applications requires rigorous assessment and consensus within the research community. Next-generation s...
Cancer remains the second leading cause of death in the United States. Most tumors arise from a myriad of genetic changes that dysregulate cell growth and prompt survival. Ident...
