Advancing Human Genomics With Nanopore Sequencing

High-throughput sequencing has revolutionized the field of human genomics. Yet, technologies must continually aim to close genomic gaps in order to drive new discoveries. Traditional short-read sequencing platforms can present challenges such as read-length limitations which preclude subsequent analysis. However, ultra-long read sequencing delivered by real-time, high-throughput nanopore technology, can facilitate the rapid, accurate characterization of full-length transcripts in a single robust workflow. This whitepaper highlights specific case studies that reveal how researchers are applying nanopore technology to a variety of sequencing techniques, including whole genome, targeted, RNA sequencing and single-cell analysis.
