This blog features voices from PacBio — and our partners and colleagues — discussing the latest research, publications, and updates about HiFi sequencing.
Long-read sequencing technologies such as PacBio HiFi sequencing are quickly becoming the new gold standard in genomics research. This article provides an introductory look at what long-read sequencing is, and…
Individual rare diseases affect a small portion of the population. However, because there are over 7,000 known rare diseases, they are, in fact, somewhat common. It is estimated that around…
If you know someone affected by a rare disease, next week marks an important day for awareness and education in the rare disease community. Anyone can be affected by rare…
Population genomics initiatives are gaining traction around the world. There are currently more than 20 active programs spread around the globe, and these programs aim to sequence millions of…
For the first time, PacBio is enabling high-throughput, comprehensive profiling of SMN1 and SMN2 with an all-new software tool called Paraphase. Since the first known case of spinal muscular…
A new preprint entitled Utility of long-read sequencing for All of Us – from research groups at Baylor College of Medicine, the Broad Institute, Jackson Laboratory, Discovery Life Sciences, Harvard…
After conducting a battery of technology comparisons, OpGen’s Ares Genetics has adopted PacBio HiFi microbial whole genome sequencing. The company believes the read length and high accuracy of HiFi…
Stay on top of important HiFi metagenomics research If you are interested in seeing how PacBio technology is making an impact in current metagenomics and microbiome research, our new…
This year, the scientific community has achieved many “firsts” – across genomes, transcriptomes, epigenomes, metagenomes, and more – with long and accurate HiFi sequencing. Another, seasonally timely, “first” was just…
PacBio is driven to create the most sophisticated multiomic sequencing technologies in the world so that you can forge a new frontier in biology. Through the SMRT Grant program, PacBio awards free HiFi sequencing services to outstanding…
Antibodies are the work horses of the adaptive immune system, identifying and neutralizing foreign objects like bacteria and viruses, and thereby are central to the science of immunology. A new…
Onso short-read sequencing systems are no longer available through PacBio PacBio is helping researchers usher in a new era of genomics with cost-effective tools to accurately identify human disease-causing tandem…
The paradigm shifts in human genetics research that are powered by PacBio sequencing have been described in numerous publications, and we have highlighted some of these previously, e.g. for the…
Embarking on a new voyage of discovery can be one of the most satisfying, motivating, and exciting aspects of being a scientist. However, finding resources and technical solutions to meet…
In this article, we discuss PacBio RNA sequencing through the lens of our most recent Iso-Seq Social club event. Read about the exciting scientific wins that were shared, and see…
