Triglia discusses her research at the intersection of genetics, epigenetics, single-cell genomics and computational biology.

Using CRISPR, researchers have modelled the different developmental stages of childhood leukaemia. They discovered that illness is often more aggressive and difficult to treat when the cancer-causing ...

Analysis of proteins is not simple. Unlike DNA, there is incredible diversity in the concentration and variety of proteins created by a cell at any given moment. In our Proteomics Playbook we outline ...

As advancements in genetic technologies accelerate at an astonishing pace, the potential for gene editing to transform our world becomes closer to being realised. With the advent of revolutionary ...

New research has uncovered the function of red blood cells as immune sensors that detect and bind to cell-free DNA present during sepsis. Red blood cells (RBCs) comprise the majority of circulating ...

The idea that the experiences of our ancestors shape who we are today is not a novel one. In fact, throughout history, great thinkers from around the world have proposed theories and ideas to explain ...

There is a constant growth in the volume, complexity and creation speed of data. Therefore, humans are increasingly relying on computational systems to find, access, interpret and re-use data, ...

This feature was written using content from out recenty published Proteomics Playbook, which you can download for FREE here. The sequence of a protein is critical as it largely dictates the protein’s ...

Illumina’s systems employ short-read sequencing techniques, which has been the predominant NGS technology for the last decade. The company has made huge advances in the NGS space and now markets a ...

“Strange is this little animal, because of its exceptional and strange morphology and because it closely resembles a bear en miniature. That is the reason why I decided to call it little water bear.” ...

Since the discovery of the basic double-helix structure of DNA In the 1950’s, scientists have devoted a huge amount of effort to determine the sequence of a variety of different genomics. It took over ...

Written by Arpita Kulkarni (Director of the Functional Genomics and Bioinformatics Core at HMS/BIDMC). Across the life sciences, a quiet anxiety is growing: what is the role of the experimental ...
