Genomic fault zones come and go
The fragile regions in mammalian genomes that are thought to play a key role in evolution go through a “birth and death” process, according to new bioinformatics research performed at the University of California, San Diego. The new work, publis…
Cloud computing method greatly increases gene analysis
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health have developed new software that greatly improves the speed at which scientists can analyze RNA sequencing data. RNA sequencing is used to compare differences in gene expression to i…
