Over a short time-scale we have seen tremendous changes in sequencing techniques and technology.
Moving from sequencing short oligonucleotides to millions of bases, from struggling towards the deduction of the coding sequence of a single gene to rapid and widely available whole genome sequencing.
Download this infographic to learn about some of the most important steps in the rapid development of modern sequencing including;
- Key technological introductions
- Breakthroughs in sequencing methods
- Research milestones

The dawn of forensic DNA analysis has had a large part to play in the evolution of criminal and private investigations. Even the smallest residues can be used to place someone at a crime scene or determine how people are related to one another. Forensic DNA analysis doesn’t stop with people either, law enforcers are using the techniques to combat smuggling of animals and exotic woods too.

The availability of technologies for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from somatic cells has allowed researchers to generate limitless pools of iPSCs retaining the genetic makeup of the somatic cells from which they were derived. Together, iPSCs and CRISPR-Cas9 systems provide researchers with effective in vitro tools for assessing gene function, disease modeling, and regenerative therapy.
