Sequence Analysis: is the process of subjecting a DNA, RNA or peptide sequence to any of a wide range of analytical methods to understand its features, function, structure, or evolution. Methodologies used include sequence alignment, searches against biological databases, and others.
Recent advances in immuno-oncology research has proven the critical role of immune cells in cancer therapy. Deep understanding of the interaction and phenotype of immune and tumor cells withi...
An ideal microbiome profiling method would produce strain level taxonomic classification of organisms and their relative quantities. We demonstrate proof of principle experiments that sequenc...
Structural variants (SVs), defined as rearrangements of genomic sequences, are both a major source of genetic diversity in human populations and are also directly responsible for the pathogen...
We introduce a differential abundance analysis method for the analysis of sparse high-throughput data from large-scale surveys of marker genes for microbial communities. Our approach relies o...
There is increasing evidence that intracellular miRNAs play a role in the pathogenesis of many complex disease phenotypes. In addition, extracellular miRNAs in exosomes are emerging as...
The Type 2 Diabetes Knowledge Portal is an open-access resource for human genetic information on type 2 diabetes (T2D). It is a central repository for data from large genomic studies that ide...
In this presentation I will describe results from a family study designed to identify the genetic cause for familial clustering of several early onset cancers. Data from next generatio...
Gene expression studies give a snapshot of the different types of RNAs being expressed at a given time point in cells or tissues in vivo. Different RNA types have different roles, for example...
The Genome in a Bottle Consortium (GIAB) has characterized an Ashkenazi trio from the Personal Genome Project (NIST Reference Material 8392) with 12 short, long, and linked read sequencing 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...
Pesticide residue screening is a pre-sale requirement for all states which have legalized the recreational or adult use of cannabis and cannabis related products. In the absence of guid...
The cannabis industry as a whole is under considerable scrutiny. Finger-pointing and blame regarding inaccurate product labels run rampant. Media outlets have often faulted the sk...
Testing is performed on cannabis and cannabis based products to ensure both quality and safety. The types of assays conducted often fall into one of two categories; profiling and...
For 100 years the cannabis plant has been demonized, made illegal, and kept from researchers. Recently, states have begun to take the situation into their own hands, enabling patients to...
Analysis of pesticides in cannabis is essential to protect the public health, especially medical cannabis patients. Sensitive and selective measurement is required in order to provide confide...
Compliance testing is the key to getting your cannabis products to market. But also ensuring your product safety and label accuracy require not only good laboratory analyses, but consis...
There is growing consumer and patient demand for products containing cannabidiol (CBD) and other constituents of the cannabis plant, due to their purported medicinal benefits for a myriad of...
