Ph.D. student Shloka Negi analyzes long-read sequencing data in the UC Santa Cruz Computational Genomics lab.

“Short-read sequencing struggles with certain kinds of sequence variants, so to better capture these, we also used long-read sequencing that reads between 5,000 and 30,000 base pairs at a time ...

Long-read lengths (hundreds of base pairs ... development and open the door to the routine use of sequencing as a diagnostic tool. Currently, several such platforms are in various stages of ...
