Lunch & Learn: Highly accurate HiFi reads for neuroscience research

Share

Many neurological diseases are poorly understood with limited treatment options. Traditional NGS approaches miss important details like structural variants and RNA isoforms, leading to misinterpretations, undiagnosed and untreated neurological conditions. Unravel the complexity of neuroscience by accessing more comprehensive and accurate data with PacBio Revio at the Duke University Sequencing and Genomic Technologies Core Facility.

Featured Topics

  • Global challenges in translational neuroscience research & local solutions
  • HiFi WGS for ALS drug discovery and development
  • Transcriptome level discovery and isoform characterization in Parkinson's Disease
