Do you listen to podcasts? Would you be interested in learning about how Olink Proteomics’ technology is applied in biomarker discovery, drug discovery, proteogenomics, and routine research into biological mechanisms? If so, here’s the first ‘teaser’ advertisement, and we will be launching the first episode in a week. You can […]
In a large meta-analysis, circulating protein levels of severe COVID patients along with many thousands of genomic datasets leads to an exciting discovery: a mutation in a gene called FAS that turns it into a non-membrane-bound, soluble form, interrupting normal immune function. In addition, an on-market chemotherapeutic drug has been […]
With Singular Genomics announcing the new G4 system at the end of 2021, and Element Biosciences announcing the AVITI system in March 2022, here is a look at the existing state-of-the-art systems in a single graphic After spending some time in Los Angeles this week visiting a few existing and […]
A new approach to next-generation sequencing, a little-known company unwraps an instrument that competes directly with the Illumina NextSeq 2000 with a third more of the throughput at half the consumables price For a technology that started in 2005 with the first 454 / Roche FLX next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform, […]
A new post that presents the concepts underlying combining 30 years of genomic research with the proteins in circulation to determine not only disease risk but the cause of disease.
With a robust collection of 500,000 individuals, the UK Biobank will succeed in its mission to study the determinants of disease through genetics and proteomics combined with extensive electronic health records and ongoing assessments What the UK Biobank is and its current status The UK Biobank (abbreviated UKB or UKBB) […]
Promising technology out of UCSF to use droplets as containers for single-cell interaction assays Way back in 2009 I remember the first time my sales manager at RainDance Technologies presented their core technology to a sophisticated group at the US National Institutes of Health, with an introduction to microfluidics. He […]
