This word cloud shows the words that people used in the ice-breaking session, that I mentioned in my last post, to describe what they hoped to gain from the conference. On Day 2, our Keynote speaker was: Dr Anneke Seller, Oxford Genetics: Clinical utility; actionable #NGS diagnosis for patients & families http://t.co/0mmrSx1Dd5 #ngsmanchester — Paul [...]

Applications & Bottlenecks In Next Generation Sequencing
After months of preparation and the occasional sleepless night, November 5th arrived. It wasn’t only Bonfire Night, but also the beginning of a two-day conference, focusing on NGS in clinical genetics laboratories. Organised by my colleagues and friends from biotexcel and myself, it was held in the Manchester Conference Centre, în, naturally enough, Manchester, UK. In order to break [...]

Așa, What Do Your Genes DO?
Genes are not passive. They are the target of molecular “dimmer switches”; typically (but not always) specific proteins, which dial up or turn down their activity. Most genes are translated into proteins, but discovering the true role of those proteins, in the life of a cell or a whole organism, is still one of the great challenges [...]

Unele dintre genele noastre lipsesc…dar care cele?
One can think of genes in a number of ways: La nivelul ADN – pur și simplu ca o secvență liniară de nucleotide, o singură comandă fix, în “normal” de stat, or Again as a DNA molecule, dar amintiți-vă că gene in organisme, mai degrabă decât în bucăți de ADN într-o eprubetă, are subject [...]
