Dmitry Velmeshev, PhD
Dr. Dmitry Velmeshev is a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of California, San Francisco. Velmeshev received his PhD from the University of Miami, where he studied molecular mechanisms of autism spectrum disorder. He then joined the laboratory of Dr. Arnold Kriegstein at UCSF. His research focuses on applying single-cell genomics and bioinformatics techniques to understand how specific cell types change during human brain development and in disease, especially neurodevelopmental disorders.

Recent Advances in Single-Cell Genomics Techniques
Single-cell genomics methods, such as single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), involve labeling biomolecules originating from individual cells, therefore enabling high-throughput molecular analysis at single-cell resolution. This article explores the recent advances in single-cell genomics techniques, and the applications of such technologies.

Whole-Exome Sequencing at the Dawn of Personalized Medicine
Deciphering the first complete sequence of the human genome in 2003 required a combined effort of scientists from 20 institutions and $3 billion of funding. Over the last decade, whole-exome sequencing (WES) established itself as a method that successfully balances cost and the output of useful data for diagnostic or research applications. Here, we look at how WES is used in both the laboratory and the clinic, and why it is a preferred method of choice in such areas.
