Oxford Nanopore

Over 3.5 million people are currently living with cancer.
Yet characterisation remains slow, costly, and often too limited to guide treatment.
See how Oxford Nanopore sequencing is changing that — offering rapid, scalable, and rich genomic insights. nanoporetech.com/applications...

Following the popularity of our previous FAQs on adaptive sampling, we are continuing the series!
This time, we're answering the most frequently asked questions about our RNA kit update.

ELRIN completes two T2T human genomes — using only #Nanopore data.
As part of their mission to advance clinical diagnostics, ELRIN has released two complete, haplotype-phased genomes—enabling deeper insights into genetic variation that could inform future clinical research elrin-network.eu/t2t.html

Francisella tularensis identified using @articnetwork.bsky.social SMART-9N metagenomics and @nanoporetech.com sequencing. Amazing work!

Need bacterial DNA methylation data? Well, we’ve been re-basecalling all ONT data for the ATCC Genome Portal to get it. A huge effort, but as of today we have Mthyl data for ~1,500 bacterial strains. Attending #ASMicrobe? happy to chat IRL about it too. i.e. > genomes.atcc.org/genomes/67e8...

Following recent events in LA, we’ve made the tough call to withdraw from #ASMicrobe. We’re planning a virtual seminar next week so our speakers can still share their amazing research.
We’ll also be highlighting science from the ASM community from afar.
More info soon.

CNS infections are deadly, yet current characterisation methods are slow & unreliable.

Discover how researchers used Oxford Nanopore sequencing to rapidly identify pathogens missed by culture, enabling faster, more targeted treatment when every second counts. nanoporetech.com/es/resource-...

Genetic testing requires multiple tests, causing delays, higher costs, & emotional strain.

Here, researchers demonstrated how a single, comprehensive Oxford Nanopore approach could streamline this process, offering faster answers & greater clarity in complex cases. nanoporetech.com/resource-cen...

In this article, GenomeWeb explores Oxford Nanopore Technologies' collaboration with the ELRIN consortium and how they are researching the potential of Oxford Nanopore sequencing as a first-line diagnostic tool for #rarediseases and familial #cancers.

Every year there so many amazing @nanoporetech.com updates at London Calling. Here I'll focus on some of my top picks for Microbiology & Infectious Disease 🦠
First, we saw how the technology continued to advance research in 2024 with ~2/3 of ONT publications in micro/infectious #nanoporeconf

I also believe that the next frontier is Microbial Epigenomics. Detection of base modifications is best-in-class with @nanoporetech.com & the data is already right there every time you sequence a microbial sample directly without PCR. What discoveries are lurking right under our noses?

Got a chance to take the @nanoporetech.com hyp(er accuracy) model for a spin. Pretty decent improvement in read quality 🚀 but expect to spend quite some more GPU hours 😉

(Reads were mapped with minimap2 and identity scores from nanoplot were used for phred score calculations)

Oxford @nanoporetech.com hyper model vs sup. Better Q-scores by simply better modelling and more AI compute.

With all that is happening it is very exciting to see the Price Lab's very first, in-house, Oxford Nanopore direct RNA seq running! Not bad for a ~3 year expired flow cell!
