UC Santa Cruz has a long history of pioneering advances in genomics research. The first working draft of a human genome sequence was assembled on our campus in 2000, which has led to enormous leaps in ...
Twenty-five years ago today, on July 7, 2000, the world got its very first look at a human genome — the 3 billion letter code that controls how our bodies function. Posted online by a small team at ...
Researchers in the Center for Biomolecular Science and Engineering (CBSE) at the University of California, Santa Cruz, made significant contributions to the analysis of the mouse genome sequence ...
Veronica Paulus is a former STAT intern supported by the Harvard University Institute of Politics. Complex regions of the human genome remained uncharted, even after researchers sequenced the genome ...
Due to their repetitive and complex DNA sequences, centromeres have been viewed as the "black boxes" of the genome for decades. Often overlooked in sequencing projects but playing a critical role in ...
June 26, 2025, is the 25th anniversary of the White House announcement of the first sequencing of the human genome, and July 28, 2025, marks the 30th anniversary of the publication of the first ...
In a breakthrough that redefines both speed and clinical potential, a new world record for the fastest human whole genome sequencing has been set. Think of all the things that can be done in four ...
In a single experiment, scientists can decipher the entire genomes of many patient samples, animal models, or cultured cells.
