Short read sequencing or exome sequence strategies\, while very powerful\, are unable to map these highly repetitive sequences. As a result\, critical information about the genome may be missed when analysis relies on NGS technologies alone. \nBionano Genomics’ platform for whole genome mapping allows for extremely long read data\, resulting in unmatched sensitivity and specificity to detect large structural variation. Our de novo maps can resolve complex repetitive regions\, identify Copy Number Variations\, and elucidate genome-wide large structural variation like balanced/unbalanced translocations\, inversions\, and large indels. \nSpecific examples will be presented of how Bionano’s platform is helping provide a molecular diagnosis for patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy\, identify potential causative variants for patients with undiagnosed genetic disorders\, and how it has been applied to discover large\, potentially oncogenic genomic rearrangements in prostate cancer and leukemia that were missed by NGS. \nSpeaker: Sven Bockland\, PhD\, Sr. Application Specialist\, Bionano \nLunch provided with RSVP URL:https://www.med.unc.edu/corefacilities/event/genomics-seminar/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20170608T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20170608T133000 DTSTAMP:20260414T031853 CREATED:20170606T162000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20181211T181814Z UID:10000114-1496919600-1496928600@www.med.unc.edu SUMMARY:Center for Structural Biology Core and Vendor Show DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn what these UNC CSB core facilitiescan do for your research and engage with over 30vendors showcasing their latest products and service. \nLunch included URL:https://www.med.unc.edu/corefacilities/event/center-for-structural-biology-core-and-vendor-show/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20170519T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20170519T120000 DTSTAMP:20260414T031853 CREATED:20170502T162000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20181211T181817Z UID:10000113-1495188000-1495195200@www.med.unc.edu SUMMARY:Seminar: New Tools for the Emerging Field of Single-Cell Analysis DESCRIPTION:As the use of NGS advances in clinical and applied spaces\, the parallelprocessing of single cells from precious patient samples at highthroughputs will be critical. With increasing demand for single-cell NGSanalyses\, several platforms have emerged based on microfluidics\, such as droplet-based and multisample nanodispensing technologies. The ICELL8™ Single-Cell System enables researchers to look at hundreds of cells in a heterogeneous cell population without common microfluidic cell-size constraints\, and the imaging limitations of the droplet-based systems\, thereby reducing sample-handling artifacts. \nSpeaker: John F.
