At Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, scientists used SMRT® Sequencing to decode one of the most challenging cancer genomes ever encountered. Along the way, they built a portfolio of open-access analysis…
For the first time ever, the winner of this year’s “Explore Your Most Interesting Genome” SMRT Grant program will be decided by the community. We’ll be using our new Genome…
In a Science paper published today, scientists from the University of Washington, the McDonnell Genome Institute, and other organizations present a new gorilla genome assembly generated with PacBio long-read sequencing,…
In a new Nature publication, scientists from Yale and other institutions report the discovery of N6-methyladenine (N6-mA) in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), contrary to the conventional wisdom that the…
Much like the “sharpen” tool in Photoshop brings a picture into tighter focus and enhances the fine detail, long-read sequencing offers enhanced resolution of genomic information, according to Cold Spring…
New Zealand is more than an amazing vacation destination or the setting of the Lord of the Rings movies; it’s also home to a wealth of fascinating species that evolved…
A new publication from scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the Joint Genome Institute, and other organizations reports a landmark study of genome-wide methylation in prokaryotes. The analyses of 230…
Today we are celebrating Rare Disease Day with like-minded folks all over the world. The tribute kicked off in 2008 and has gathered so much momentum that people in more…
In a perspective recently published in Science magazine, scientists Allyson Byrd and Julie Segre from the National Human Genome Research Institute used recent advances in microbial analysis to look at…
This month serves as the 15th anniversary of the first publication of the human genome by both public and private efforts. PacBio CEO Mike Hunkapiller was a central player in…
On the final day of AGBT, attendees strapped in for the last talks of the conference before the ’80s-themed dance party to close out the meeting. Two of those talks focused on…
We’ve been in the genomics world long enough to remember when it was a big deal to see a great single-gene assembly or microbial genome assembly reported in an AGBT…
This year’s AGBT presentations took our minds off how much we missed the Marco Island beach. Wednesday’s opening plenary talks ranged from the ocean virome to Ebola and beyond. David…
Here’s the video of our AGBT 2016 workshop. We’d like to thank our speakers for a great event. Enjoy!
We’re packing our bags for Orlando and the 17th annual Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) conference! While we’ll miss the usual Marco Island setting, this year’s talks and…
