Sequencing Evolved — Highly Accurate Long Reads for Human Genetics
Date: Monday, October 26, 2020
Time: 10:00 a.m. PDT, 1:00 p.m. EDT, 6:00 p.m. BST
In this online workshop we will introduce the new Sequel IIe System as well as the latest applications of highly accurate long reads (HiFi reads) for human genetics. Guest speakers include Emily Farrow (Children’s Mercy Kansas City) and Hagen Tilgner (Cornell University).

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 -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
