  • MiLabs Launches Platforma: Bridging the Gap Between Biology and Bioinformatics

    May 08 | Bio-IT World | For many years, Stan Poslavsky applied his Ph.D. in theoretical physics to work in quantum theory. But when he switched to work in immunology, he noticed the need for better computational software for biologists. So he developed a software platform. MiLaboratories began its journey with MiXCR, a software for processing next-generation sequencing data for T-cells and B-cells. More

  • First-of-its-Kind AI Tool Reveals the ‘Social Network’ of Cancer Cells

    May 07 | Bio-IT World | Researchers in Europe have developed a unique deep learning tool for analyzing spatial transcriptomics data to help decipher communication happening cell to cell as well as at the community level within tissues. It’s the first artificial intelligence (AI) method capable of measuring and interpreting a range of data from a cell's “social network." More

  • Illumina, Ovation Release GLP-1 Patient Dataset

    May 06 | Bio-IT World | PacBio this week announced it is licensing advanced DNA methylation detection methods developed by Professor Dennis Lo and colleagues at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Centre for Novostics to improve the methylation detection capabilities in HiFi chemistry. The licensed technology is designed to enhance PacBio HiFi sequencing with improved detection of DNA base modifications—including 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) and hemimethylated 5-methylcytosine (5mC)—in native DNA. More
