Sequencing
  • RNA-sequencing and CAGE-sequencing provides a picture of gene expression changes associated with disease pathology.
  • Transcriptional changes represent the underlying biology of disease.
  • Exome and whole genome sequencing indicate genetic causes or propensity to disease.
  • Cancer genomes and transcriptomes are especially illuminating as to the initiation and progression of tumours in animals and humans.
  • single cell RNA expression.
  • single cell DNA sequencing.
