  • Publication number: 20220344013
    Abstract: A method for determining at least one of a medical diagnosis recommendation and a medical intervention recommendation for a subject. At least one of electronic health record (EHR) data and biomarker data for the subject are input into a diagnostic/intervention recommendation model that comprises parameters and a function. The parameters are identified based on a training dataset that comprises a plurality of training samples. Each training sample is associated with a retrospective subject and includes at least one of EHR data and biomarker data for the retrospective subject. The function represents a relation between the at least one of EHR data and biomarker data for the subject received as inputs to the diagnostic/intervention recommendation model, and at least one of a medical diagnosis recommendation and intervention recommendation for the subject generated as an output of the model.

  • Patent number: 11479815
    Abstract: Described herein is a method of sequencing, comprising: splitting an asymmetrically tagged library into a plurality of subsamples, tagging the adaptor-ligated DNA in the sub-samples with sequence tags that identify the subsamples, optionally pooling the sub-samples, sequencing polynucleotides from each of the tagged sub-samples, or copies of the same, to produce sequence reads each comprising: i. a sub-sample identifier sequence and ii. the sequence of at least part of a fragment in the sample, wherein some of the sequence reads are derived from the top strand of a fragment in the sample and some of the sequence reads of are derived from the bottom strand of the same fragment.

  • Patent number: 11332775
    Abstract: Among other things, a method for normalizing a sample is provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: (a) reacting a sample with a limiting amount of a single-turnover sequence-specific endonuclease that recognizes a target sequence, thereby cleaving a portion of the nucleic acid molecules that comprise the target sequence and producing a normalized amount of a first cleavage product; and (b) isolating, transcribing or selectively amplifying the normalized amount of the first cleavage product. In this method, because a limiting amount of the endonuclease is used, the normalized amount of the first cleavage product is determined by the limiting amount of the first single-turnover sequence-specific endonuclease used in step (a).

  • Publication number: 20220042092
    Abstract: Described herein is a method of sequencing a template that comprises a direct repeat, comprising: (a) in the same reaction, hybridizing a primer to a first site that is upstream of the first repeat sequence and hybridizing a primer to a second site that is upstream of the second repeat sequence, wherein the first and second sites are: (i) upstream of the first and second repeat sequences, respectively, and (ii) equidistant from the first and second repeat sequences; and (b) subjecting the hybridization product of (a) to a sequencing-by-synthesis sequencing reaction to produce a sequence read that comprises a combination of the first and second repeat sequences.

  • Patent number: 11111524
    Abstract: Described herein, among other things, is a method of sequencing, comprising: concatenating a plurality of fragments of genomic DNA to produce concatenated DNA; sequencing the concatenated DNA to produce a plurality of sequence reads, wherein at least some of the sequence reads comprise: at least the sequence of the 3? and/or 5? ends of a fragment that corresponds to the locus of interest and sequence of one or both of the fragments that flank the fragment in the concatenated DNA; and grouping the sequence reads that corresponds to the locus of interest using, for each of the grouped sequence reads: the 3? and/or 5? end sequences; and/or the flanking sequence.

  • Patent number: 11078482
    Abstract: Described herein is a population of direct repeat molecules, where each molecule of the population contains a direct repeat composed of sequences that are amplified from the opposite strands of a double-stranded fragment of genomic DNA. Within each molecule, the first repeat (referred to as TOP) is amplified from the one strand of a double-stranded fragment of genomic DNA and the second repeat (referred to as BOT?) is amplified from the other strand of the same fragment of double-stranded fragment of genomic DNA.
