Now that Ion Torrent and PacBio instruments are showing up in the field, is it time to add sections to them? Or should we wait until traffic on those topics starts appearing?

I second the idea. I know CGI is a service provider (hence the Service Providers forum) but we could also add a CGI section too. -
It's in my queue of things to do. I'm not sure if any customers are NOT under CDA, but it's definitely appropriate. Also might be appropriate to retire a forum or two as well (guess it doesn't hurt to leave them open though).
Thanks for the suggestions guys. Keep 'em coming.Comment

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
