The recent Zika virus outbreak highlights the need for low-cost diagnostics that can be rapidly developed for distribution and use in pandemic regions. In early 2016 we developed a pipe...
Fusion genes are hybrid genes formed by the fusion of two separate genes. Translocation, interstitial deletion and chromosomal inversions are some of the genetic events that can lead to the f...
Sanger sequencing and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods have been the standard molecular methods in clinical diagnostics for decades. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology r...
Core or central laboratory are facing several challenges. First, the management and operations of a successful modern laboratory is a real complex exercise, with multiple pre- and post-analyt...
Are there DNA targets in your lab that are difficult to genotype using standard PCR or sequencing?Do you ever need to genotype a single sample, and you don’t want to wait to batch sam...

New generations of treatments successfully target cancer cell signaling and modulate anti-cancer immunity to improve outcomes for advanced-stage malignancies. Such clinical responses are gove...
Intra-tumor heterogeneity is a major obstacle to cancer treatment. Existing single-cell studies of intra-tumor heterogeneity have largely focused on DNA mutations; functional heterogeneity is...
Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) have been extensively explored as circulating biomarkers in various cancers. Due to their rarity, heterogeneity and stem cell-like properties, detecting and pro...
FTIR spectroscopic imaging is an emerging tool for label-free, non-destructive characterization of tissues. The pathological annotation of tissue can be performed in an automated and objectiv...
Real-time multiplex PCR assays are potentially the most rapid, most sensitive,and least expensive way to assess the abundance of mutant DNA fragments present in liquid biopsies; provided th...
