I recently returned, albeit part-time, to work in academia and I was offered the chance to teach. Many academics in scientific research never teach, other than perhaps one-to-one “teaching” of a new doctoral student. In the past, I have presented my work to other scientists and also given a few guest lectures to undergraduates; but [...]

Applications & Bottlenecks In Next Generation Sequencing, Day 2
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 — 保罗 [...]

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, in, naturally enough, Manchester, 联合王国. In order to break [...]

So, 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 [...]

Some of our genes are missing…but which ones?
One can think of genes in a number of ways: At the level of the DNA – simply as a linear sequence of nucleotides, in ONE fixed order, in the “normal” state, or Again as a DNA molecule, but remember that genes in organisms, rather than in pieces of DNA in a test-tube, are subject [...]

什么教导我们人类先天性畸形的小老鼠?
Mice are born with their eyes tightly shut, opening them for the first time only a few days later. So when a mouse was noticed that was smaller than normal and had been born with it’s eyes open, it drew attention. Abnormalities like this arise spontaneously in all animal facilities, but sometimes they are not [...]
