Mutation: the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations, caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA, or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes.
In genomics, as in life, you need to be in the right place at the right time, and you need integrity, to be credible. Since the availability of the human genome sequence, there's been an...
This presentation illustrates the features of QIAGEN sample to insight approach, and how it combines a powerful chemistry based on unique molecular indexes (UMIs) and a UMI-aware bioinformati...
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men and a major health issue in the US and Worldwide. Until recently, prostate cancer was not felt to be a hereditary disease. ...
Cannabidiol (CBD) has emerged as a promising anti-epileptic drug in otherwise treatment-resistant genetic epileptic disorders. However, the clinical trials have been limited by their use of C...
