The UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute has received a $2 million grant from the W. M. Keck Foundation for ongoing research to develop a comprehensive map of human genetic variation. The Human Genome ...

It’s called a pangenome, and it could explain the DNA that makes each of us unique. The joke about the Human Genome Project is how many times it’s been finished, but not actually. The first time was ...

The Human Genome Variation Map will represent variants as alternate paths along the genome, formalized as a very large mathematical graph. This image shows the high-level structure of variation in the ...

Twenty-two years after the completion of the Human Genome Project, scientists have unveiled the most expansive catalog of human genetic variation ever compiled. Across two new papers published ...

We propose to generate high-density whole genome maps in nano-channels by combining Cas9- guide-RNA (gRNA) sequence-specific DNA labeling and motif-based DNA labeling. Cas9-guide- RNA (gRNA) DNA ...

In a recent study published in Nature Biotechnology, researchers explored the causes of cancer by mapping somatic mutation rates across the human genome. Study: Genome-wide mapping of somatic mutation ...
