With the quantity of genomic data increasing at an exponential rate, it is imperative that
these data be captured electronically, in a standard format. Standardization activities must …

Here we present a standard developed by the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC) for
reporting marker gene sequences—the minimum information about a marker gene …

Background Structural retinal imaging biomarkers are important for early recognition and
monitoring of inflammation and neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis. With the …

An approach for genome analysis based on sequencing and assembly of unselected pieces
