Sequencing Team
The team of bioinformaticians, Genetic Health Coaches, and writers at Sequencing.
About Sequencing Team
The Sequencing team is made up of physicians, bioinformaticians, Genetic Health Coaches, and health writers who create and review the content published on Sequencing. The team draws on backgrounds in medical genetics, personalized preventive medicine, and genetic health coaching to make sure every article reflects current science and gives readers something they can act on.
This byline is used for articles written collaboratively across the team, or when content does not have a single named author. Every article carries the same standard of review regardless of byline.
Articles from Sequencing Team
Datasets
Paired-end files uploaded to one account link on their own, flagged by a green Compatibility light, so apps process R1 and R2 together. Manual pairing is also possible.
European Union data protection
Businesses covered by EU or Swiss data protection law can see how Sequencing meets the US-EU-UK-Swiss Data Privacy Framework, with model contract clauses offered.
Formats
Universal Compatibility technology accepts any file format that routinely holds genetic data or genetic information, with unlimited upload, storage and analysis.
Clinical+ VCF
Clinical+ VCF is a Sequencing file format that removes the ambiguity of standard VCFs while keeping all clinical detail in one manageable file.
FASTQ Format Compatibility
Learn about the different types of FASTQ files, such as paired FASTQ and concatenated FASTQ, and which types are compatible with DNA analysis apps and reports.
Ownership
You keep ownership of the files in your account and can share, download or delete them at no cost. FAQs answer whether data is sold and who may see it.
Security
Encryption and advanced security protocols guard stored genetic data while keeping it usable. Sequencing is HIPAA and HITECH compliant and a GA4GH member.
