A streamlined, automated process helps scientists coordinate site-ready production-level whole genome sequencing results.

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics-meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

Twenty-five years ago today, on July 7, 2000, the world got its very first look at a human genome — the 3 billion letter code that controls how our bodies function. Posted online by a small team at ...
