Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...

Move over karyotypes—genetic disorder detection has vastly improved. Researchers are now using array CGH (aCGH), to quickly scan through an entire genome for imbalances.

In addition to the surprising revelation that our chromosomes harbor fewer genes than originally predicted, the Human Genome Project also unveiled that all individuals share approximately 99.9% of ...

Scott W. Stuart, MD, MS; Casey H. King, BA; G. Shashidar Pai, MD Such observations emphasize the importance of clarifying the origin of a genetic variation by studying the parents for comparison. The ...

Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced the extension of its technology access program to National Cancer Institute (NCI) extramural researchers. The NCI funds approximately 4,500 research grants a ...
