staff reporter

NEW YORK – A team from Weill Cornell Medicine, the Broad Institute, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and elsewhere has identified a handful of new complex genome rearrangement groups in cancer genomes using a junction balance-based analysis focused on thousands of available tumor genome sequences.

Target Enrichment NGS Panel Outperforms the Gold Standard for Sequence and CNV Analysis

Sponsored by
Roche

Target enrichment has been a major driver behind the clinical adoption of next-generation sequencing (NGS) over the last decade because it simplifies analysis and provides a cost-effective method of massive parallel resequencing. It has not only replaced Sanger sequencing, but it is actively dispensing the need for parallel copy number variant (CNV) analysis using classic techniques.
