Genome science refers to the study of the genome, and organism's complete set of DNA which includes all of its genes. Genome constrasts with genetics, the latter of which refers to the study of one specific gene and their role in inheritance.
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is challenging our health care systems and has profoundly impacted our society. Due to the poor global public health response, SARS-CoV-2 has developed many variants....
As viral threats continue to emerge, viral detection assays are important not only for recognizing if a virus is present, but also for surveillance and variant characterization. Accurate det...
As part of Healthy Davis Together, we have implemented rapid, inexpensive, high throughput testing for SARS-Cov-2 using technology repurposed from the agricultural biotechnology sector. This...
COVID-19 is a severe disease that has caused >1 million deaths in under one year. As this disease is novel, the molecular and cellular underpinnings of the progressive tissue injury are p...
Interest in cell and gene therapy-based disease prevention and treatment has increased rapidly over the last few decades, however there are still many hurdles to overcome and further progres...
Bridging a deep understanding of molecular profiles with clinical information is critical to developing innovative precision medicine tools in oncology. Discovery’s recently launched S...
Revolutionary sequencing technologies are enabling whole transcriptome profiling of tens to hundreds of thousands of single cells in parallel, in a single experiment. This has led to an expl...
Since late 2020, several prominent SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern have emerged harboring specific mutations which increase viral transmissibility (e.g., lineage B.1.1.7), and which appear to...
The ability of single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) to measure the transcriptional basis of heterogeneity between individual cells is transforming biomedical research. It enables the precise &lsq...
In mammals, DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that regulates gene expression by serving as a maintainable mark whose absence marks promoters and enhancers. Recent epidemiological studies...
The complete assembly of each human chromosome is essential for understanding human biology and evolution. Using complementary long-read sequencing technologies, we complete the first linear...
Dr. Jordan RoseFigura from Swift Biosciences will present on the technology created to enable this research that covers 99.7 % of the SARS-CoV-2 genome from limited viral titers. Including a...
Even as COVID-19 vaccines are being deployed around the world, the clinical laboratory will continue to play a major role this year helping to control the pandemic by diagnosing new infectio...
The COVID19 pandemic continues to be a major epidemiological challenge across the globe. Part of the challenge, often seen with viruses, is that the nucleic acid genome quickly mutates, prod...

The global pandemic of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by Severe Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has highlighted the importance of surveillance efforts to closel...
DATE: April 08, 2021 TIME: 08:00am PDT Multi-omics involves the use of different data modalities to study multiple “omes”, such as the genome, transcriptome, epigenome, and/or t...
Cell therapies, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, are emerging as promising treatments, especially for hematological malignancies. However, many challenges remain in...
In this fireside chat, we’ll discuss how gene editing protocols can benefit from long-read sequencing at various stages to optimize and enhance vector integrity, which cannot be addres...
