Over 3.5 million people are currently living with cancer.
Yet characterisation remains slow, costly, and often too limited to guide treatment.
See how Oxford Nanopore sequencing is changing that — offering rapid, scalable, and rich genomic insights. nanoporetech.com/applications...

If hadn’t think about it before you ahould NOW!
Answering questions in gene cooy number variations, brain cancer or blood group determination … just to name a few.
What if targeted sequencing actually meant targeted?

Uncover how Oxford Nanopore’s adaptive sequencing delivers high coverage, faster results & a more efficient workflow than WGS — all in our latest Nanopore Know-How post.

Gave a talk at Fraunhofer IME 🌱 on big data in plant biology. Covered genomics in Digitalis purpurea, dark pigments, withanolide biosynthesis + coexpression analyses.

Tools like KIPEs & CoExpPhylo make gene function annotation accessible & powerful.

Are you at #Botany2025 ?

Do you want to know how to ID anthocyanins and flavonoids from mixed samples without spending too much money?

Have you been wondering which pigments are in Viola sororia flowers?

Go see Karen Campos at poster #223!
