This blog features voices from PacBio — and our partners and colleagues — discussing the latest research, publications, and updates about HiFi sequencing.
A new review in Nucleic Acids Research offers a sweeping look at human sequencing applications for SMRT Sequencing, finding that “[t]he myth that SMRT sequencing is too error prone ……
The SOLVE-RD research program, a collaboration of 21 participant organizations in 10 nations, announced it has received a €15 million grant from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 initiative. SOLVE-RD aims…
One of our favorite January traditions is taking part in the Precision Medicine World Conference (PMWC), a three-day Silicon Valley event focused on exploring challenges and opportunities in personalized medicine….
In a recent publication, scientists from the University of California, Davis, and PacBio reported results from an investigation of alternative splicing associated with a repeat expansion in the gene linked…
A new paper out in PNAS details the usefulness of long reads for isoform sequencing. “Characterization of the human ESC transcriptome by hybrid sequencing” comes from lead author Kin Fai…
In a new paper reporting a protocol for using short-read sequence data to locate short tandem repeats (STRs), scientists find that long-read sequence information is necessary to resolve regions with…
We hosted a structural varation workshop at the annual meeting of the American Society of Human Genetics, and were pleased to see that the speakers’ presentations really resonated with attendees…
In order to help evaluate the utility of long, unbiased sequence reads for characterizing structural variation in the human genome using our recently released P5-C3 scaffolding sequencing chemistry, we have…
An advance online publication in Nature Biotechnology from Michael Snyder’s lab at Stanford University demonstrates the utility of long-read sequencing for assessing transcribed regions across the human genome. Long PacBio…
