GenomicGapID: Leveraging Spatial Distribution of Conserved Genomic Sites for Broad-Spectrum Microbial Identification

GenomicGapID uses conserved genomic site spacing to create universal primers for broad microbial identification, achieving high coverage with few primer sets.

Alveolar metabolite availability facilitates secondary infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in acutely injured lungs

This study shows that lung injury alters the alveolar metabolic environment, promoting Pseudomonas aeruginosa growth and secondary infection in ALI/ARDS.

A rapid, inexpensive, culture-free, universal bacterial identification system using internal transcribed spacer targeting primers: a proof-of-principle study

This paper introduces a universal bacterial identification system using ITS-targeting primers that outperforms existing methods in speed, cost, and taxonomic breadth.

Rapid Real-time Squiggle Classification for Read Until Using RawMap

RawMap is a fast and accurate classifier for filtering non-target reads in real-time nanopore sequencing, improving efficiency and reducing costs.

Ultra-rapid somatic variant detection via real-time threshold sequencing

This paper introduces Threshold Sequencing and LAMPrey to enable ultra-rapid somatic variant detection in under 30 minutes using real-time sequencing and targeted amplification.
