In a single experiment, scientists can decipher the entire genomes of many patient samples, animal models or cultured cells. To fully realize the potential to study biology at this unprecedented scale ...

Venter redrew the boundaries of biology — sequencing DNA at unprecedented speed, engineering synthetic life and charting ...

The genome is more than a linear code; it is a dynamic structure whose three-dimensional folding dictates how genes are regulated. Traditional sequencing technologies capture base-level variation but ...

A routine experiment with a new single-cell DNA sequencing method turned into a surprising scientific twist when researchers ...

J. Craig Venter's pioneering research helped define modern genomics and launched the field of synthetic biology.

In the 1990s Venter bet that he could use a sequencing technique to speed up the decoding of the human genome and he beat an ...

Complete Genomics, a U.S.-based leader in genomic sequencing technologies, today announced results demonstrating that AI-trained variant calling models can reduce genome analysis errors by up to 73% ...

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

Ultima Genomics, Inc., a developer of ultra-high-throughput sequencing systems, continues its mission to enable sequencing at scale with the unveiling of the UG200 Series and next generation Solaris 2 ...

J. Craig Venter, one of the lead scientists in sequencing the human genome and a pioneer of modern genomics, died on ...
