Genomic and Imaging Technology and Developmental Genetics
Progress of science depends on new techniques, new discoveries and new ideas, probably in that order.
Sydney Brenner
We have endeavored to apply new technologies to fundamental questions of biology. These include next-generation sequencing techniques, novel methods of genome modification in both mouse and zebrafish, computational analysis and highly sensitive methods for imaging developmental processes. Seattle Children’s Hospital is an active partner in the Brotman-Baty Institute, a precision medicine program directed by Dr. Jay Shendure, and we work closely with them to apply state-of-the-art methods to understand mammalian development and human disease.
