For higher accuracy and more effective microbial diagnostics, researchers at the Earlham Institute have evaluated a new approach to analyse metagenomic samples that may contain low numbers of certain species - helping to prevent crucial genomic information from being overlooked or lost.

Following the UK’s departure from the EU, DEFRA has put into place new legislation to cut bureaucracy for gene editing in plant research.

Eagle Genomics and Earlham Institute are delighted to announce their new partnership focused on providing critical tools required to analyse, explore and exploit complex microbiome data.

The Government has published plans for how it will support UK scientists to unlock the potential benefits of gene editing, but the Earlham Institute warns greater detail is needed along with funding commitments for plant science.

A new software tool developed by Earlham Institute researchers will help bioinformaticians improve the quality and accuracy of their biological data, and avoid mis-assemblies.
