As a graduate student at Stanford University in the early 1990s, Jonathan Eisen convinced a friend with access to one of the first automated DNA sequencers to run 10,000 base pairs for him. "Doing it ...

Automated library preparation is critical for reducing errors, increasing repeatability, and reducing hands-on time, allowing researchers to generate sequence data from DNA more quickly. The CyBio ...

This outsourcing of labor is possible thanks to the emergence and widespread proliferation of automated DNA sequencing instruments, which can accomplish in one day what would take a whole team of ...

The PippinHT system serves as an automated tool for DNA size selection in NGS applications. Leveraging the company's esteemed sizing technology, PippinHT enhances throughput to 24 samples per run, a ...

We are getting wind that the developers of the MinION DNA sequencer have been able to work out early issues in reliability, and intend to bring a device market later this year. Having a device like ...

Despite these advances, the synthesis of DNA nanostructures has remained a largely manual and time-consuming process. Traditional approaches often require the precise mixing of hundreds of unique DNA ...

Johan Strömqvist, PhD, has always been interested in “seeing” molecules, particularly in three dimensions (3D). Strömqvist worked with optical single-molecule imaging for his PhD and then founded a ...

Whole genome analysis plays a critical role in the development of life-saving diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines, with growing interest in noncoding regions and Whole genome analysis plays a ...
