Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Environmental Genomics in the Age of NGS: From Microbes to Conservation Strategies
Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.
Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...Last edited by SEQadmin2; 05-28-2026, 03:29 AM. -
New Tools for Old Evidence: How Advanced Sequencing Is Revolutionizing Forensic Genomics
Nearly four decades ago, DNA analysis was introduced into forensic practice, transforming the criminal investigation process. The first methods were labor-intensive, requiring large amounts of high-quality biological material. The emergence of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which amplifies tiny quantities of DNA into detectable amounts, made routine forensic testing practical. Today, short tandem repeat (STR) profiling via capillary electrophoresis (CE) is the mainstay of forensic...Last edited by SEQadmin2; 06-02-2026, 10:24 AM. -

How AI Is Changing NGS Workflows
Current NGS technologies easily deliver terabases of data in a single run. At the same time, AI is on the rise, with many touting its potential for handling complex, high-volume information. In this article, we will break down how AI models are being implemented in NGS from primary to tertiary analysis, and whether they pose an advantage in accuracy, speed, and genomic insights.
