The Podcast Explain is for everyone interested in DNA/RNA sequencing or technology in general. As Iuliia doesn't have a solid background in sequencing, she keeps asking "simple" - even silly at times - questions and Daniel gives his best to make us understand.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

SE4: Long vs Short reads
Q: What would be your response for using short read sequencing?
It's optimal for cases where the specific gene or region you are investigating is known and under 300 base pairs in length.
SE4: Long vs Short reads
Q: Florian, why would I use long reads?
You can resolve structural variations that short reads often miss, allowing for more accurate discovery of disease-causing mutations.
E12: PacBio ONSO | Sequencing by binding
Q: Can you recall the problem we solved with the DNA nanoboy creation?
Yes, it was related to PCR bias.
