Patents by Inventor Nicholas Eattock

Nicholas Eattock has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Higher target capture efficiency using probe extension
    Patent number: 11118222
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include methods for preparing an enriched sequencing library. In some embodiments, the methods involve preparing a sequencing library that is enriched for AT-rich sequences. In certain embodiments, the methods involve determining a presence or an absence of cancer, determining a cancer stage, monitoring cancer progression, and/or determining a cancer classification in a subject by analyzing an enriched sequencing library.
    Type: Grant
