For some reason this information is not readily available. Just want to know who to give the nobel prize to.

As usual, there is not a simple answer.
Frequently Rollin Hotchkiss is credited, because he was the first to describe "Epi-cytosine" as a distinct, but chemically very similar base to cytosine. (see Fig. 2)
However he established no link to epigenetics and also did not investigate the exact chemical structure of "Epi-Cytosine". The identification as 5mC was achieved by Waldo Cohn in 1951 .

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...Today, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
