    Webinar Abstract:
    Copy number variants constitute a significant fraction of genomic alterations responsible for cancer and various inherited disorders. In a clinical setting, performing focused NGS testing based on a panel of relevant genes is both economical and provides faster results. Thus the ability to detect CNVs from gene panel based NGS tests increases the diagnostic yield significantly. In this webinar, we will present few clinical case studies to demonstrate the new CNV analysis workflow in Strand NGS that enables researchers to detect and visualize copy number changes ranging from single exon to chromosome level events.
    About Speaker:
    Dr. Smita Agrawal, Senior Scientist, Strand Life Sciences, has over 14 years of research experience applying analytical methods to biological problems in the fields of neuroscience, stem cell biology, immunology and genetics. Smita has a PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley and has experience working as a post-doctoral scholar in the division of Human Genetics at the University of Minnesota, and as a researcher in the early discovery division of Genentech Inc.

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
