This blog features voices from PacBio — and our partners and colleagues — discussing the latest research, publications, and updates about HiFi sequencing.
We’re heading cross-country to the Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) Meeting starting Monday in sunny Hollywood, Florida. There will be several great opportunities to learn about how scientists…
If you didn’t get to the Plant and Animal Genome meeting this year, you missed a great workshop featuring SMRT Sequencing users and the fascinating projects they’re working on across…
Scientists from the University of Washington and McDonnell Genome Institute recently reported in Genome Research the results of an in-depth assessment of structural variation in the human genome using SMRT…
A new Nature paper from scientists at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and other institutions delves into two Plasmodium genomes and reveals novel information about how these parasites have evolved. SMRT…
We were delighted to have so many ASHG attendees join our workshop, titled “Discovering and Targeting Causative Variation Underlying Human Genetic Disease Using SMRT Sequencing.” If you missed it,…
Looks like the sun will be shining on the annual Plant and Animal Genome (PAG) conference next week (despite the recent stormy weather in CA). We’re excited to be a…
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new version of our chemistry, SMRT Cells, and software for the Sequel System. The V4 software, V2 chemistry, and SMRT Cells…
We’re excited to be participating again in the Precision Medicine World Conference (PMWC), an independent conference series founded in 2009 and co-hosted with Stanford Health Care, UCSF, Intermountain Health, Duke University,…
A new article in Drug Discovery & Development from Stuart Scott and Yao Yang at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai offers a compelling look at enhanced analysis…
A new publication from scientists at the University of California, Davis, and the USDA Agricultural Research Service presents important findings about a fungus that threatens global grape production. As part…
We’re pleased to announce the winner of this year’s SMRT Grant, which launched during the American Society for Microbiology annual meeting this summer. The grant program, co-sponsored by PacBio and…
We recently co-sponsored a webinar with Springer Nature, and if you missed it live, you can now register to watch the recording. Moderated by Nature Publishing Group’s Jayshan Carpen, the…
You may remember the firefly genome sequencing project, which was a finalist in our recent SMRT Grant competition and ultimately was crowdfunded through the Experiment site and our Genome Galaxy…
Last month we attended the annual meeting of the American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (ASHI), where we were impressed to see the great progress in scientific research around transplantation,…
Many scientists who participated in the original Human Genome Project shared a grand vision that individual genomes would one day be part of routine medical care. Genomics veteran Richard Gibbs,…
