When the lights turn on in a genomics lab, the day is already in motion. Boxes of samples wait to be logged, barcodes are scanned, concentrations get double-checked and…
The challenges of bringing on new technology feel surprisingly similar regardless of career stage or field. Grad students, bioinformaticians, PIs, and professionals running core facilities all want to make…
November’s standout publications show how PacBio technology is impacting advances in human genomics research. This month’s selection includes studies on accurate variant detection in paralogous genes, a new visualization…
Thanksgiving is almost here, and we’re filled with gratitude for the food on our tables and the science that helps make this possible. From the corn in a casserole…
We just got back from the Molecular Pathology (AMP) conference in Boston, where the conversation around clinical research and translational genomics was in full motion. The field is moving…
As genetics research evolves, scientists are recognizing that it’s not just the DNA sequence that matters, it’s how that DNA is packaged. The study of epigenetics, how chromatin structure…
This month’s roundup showcases the diverse ways researchers are using PacBio technology to uncover new insights across population genomics, cancer research, neurodegenerative disease, and precision medicine. In the October…
In genome editing, precision is the goal, but biology has a way of introducing variation of its own. Genetic mosaicism occurs when different genetic variants coexist within the same…
At the University of Michigan, two cores on opposite sides of campus are working together to change what’s possible in genomics. Judith Meyers helps run the Advanced Genomics Core…
This week PacBio is bringing our energy and innovation in human genomics to ASHG in Boston, and there’s no better time to learn about what we’ve been up to….
Microbes touch every part of our lives. They’re what make up the beneficial communities living in our guts and the pathogens that drive major public health crises. If you’re…
This month’s publications show just how versatile HiFi sequencing has become. In September, studies ranged from building the most comprehensive map yet of human genomic imprinting, to evaluating clinical…
As many as 7 in 10 people carry at least one pathogenic genetic variant, even if they have no family history of disease1. That means most couples could unknowingly…
Carrier screening is one of the most influential ways genetics is shaping the future of human health. By revealing inherited risks before they ever appear, carrier screening has changed…
We are thrilled to announce the winners of the 2025 Microbiome SMRT Grant for HiFi shotgun metagenomics. This year’s program received hundreds of amazing proposals from researchers around the…
