Pathogenic Variant Carriers Missed by Current Genetic Testing

Current guidelines recommend genetic testing for people who have a personal or family history of cancer that indicates they might be at an increased risk of harboring a pathogenic familial variant, but this approach could miss people who lack any personal or family history. More...

RT-LAMP Used to Genotype and Diagnose Chikungunya

Chikungunya virus has re-emerged as an important pathogen causing several outbreaks in the world. As the clinical symptoms of chikungunya are similar to other mosquito-borne febrile diseases, the definitive diagnosis of the disease is based on the detection of viral genome from the patient blood. More...
