Researchers studying the diversity of microbes in environmental samples now have access to a new tool that opens the door to cheaper, more accessible analysis of their samples, thanks to a major advance led by scientists at Earlham Institute, Institut Pasteur, and Quadram Institute.

A new economic report analysing the financial impact of sequencing all complex life in the UK and Ireland has shown a huge return on investment and expected growth in scientific research.

Scientists developing a single-cell sequencing pipeline at Earlham Institute have revealed previously unknown diversity from a group of free-living protists closely related to the parasites that cause sleeping sickness.

Researchers at the Earlham Institute, the University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University have analysed gut cells to understand the drivers behind fibrosis (scarring), a common complication in Crohn’s Disease affecting 10-20% of patients.

A new study in the journal PNAS addresses longstanding questions in biology: Can plants sense the environment directly in their developing seeds, or is seasonal information acquired by their parents somehow passed down to the seed?

The Earlham Institute and Natural History Museum, London have today announced a joint venture spin-out company Agnos Biosciences™ and its cutting-edge rapid DNA air sequencing technology, AirSeq™, to transform biological threat detection.
