UBS-seq: An ultrafast bisulfite sequencing method more accurately detecting 5-methylcytosine in DNA and RNA
Current bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq) suffers from notable limitations such as long reaction time, severe DNA damage, overestimation of modification level etc. UBS-seq overcomes these limitations and detects 5-methylcytosine in DNA and RNA accurately starting from low input biological samples.
Virus-inclusive profiling of the human gut microbiome
The human gut contains not only bacteria, but also viruses. Our new tool Phanta allows researchers to quantify these populations simultaneously, offering insights into their complex interactions.
Advancing Health Equity for Medical Devices
Proposed reforms to the FDA's Breakthrough Medical Devices program provide an opportunity to examine challenges and potential solutions for addressing health disparities in medical device development.
