The Scientist - USA (2020-04)

Third-generation sequencing methods promise longer sequence reads without the challenges of genome assembly. Beyond simple DNA sequencing, these

technologies can reveal epigenetics, transcriptomics, and metagenomics data. This webinar, brought to you by The Scientist and sponsored by New England

BioLabs and Arbor Biosciences, will explore new sequencing technologies that may surpass the capability of current next-generation sequencing to help

researchers more fully understand human health and disease.

Beyond Next-Generation Sequencing

Transcriptome-Scale Spatial Gene Expression

in the Human Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex

Differences in pathology and gene expression associated with neuropsychiatric disorders can be localized to specific layers in the human brain. In this

webinar, sponsored by 10X Genomics, scientists from the Lieber Institute for Brain Development describe how they defined the laminar topography

of gene expression in the human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), a brain area implicated in a number of neuropsychiatric disorders, using the

Visium Spatial Gene Expression Solution.
