Next-Generation Sequencing: A high-throughput method used to determine a portion of the nucleotide sequence of an individual's genome. This technique utilizes DNA sequencing technologies that are capable of processing multiple DNA sequences in parallel. Also called massively parallel sequencing and NGS.
Dr. Ritterhouse's laboratory has implemented rapid and ultra rapid protocol for NSCLC genomic profiling, based on NGS. This has led to significant shortening of turn around time (TAT) an...
