This week @dr-ahlamq.bsky.social has been preparing DNA for long-read sequencing. Historically, DNA is broken into 'chunks' to read the code. Long-read sequencing is newer technology for deciphering much longer stretches of DNA, providing in-depth information about leukaemia genetics.​

Half way through my training for #GNR26 and today’s long run pushed my longest distance 2km/1.2miles further! I’m running to support @childcancernth.bsky.social mission to help children with cancer, please consider donating, as every little helps 🧡 ajbellgreatnorthrun2026.enthuse.com/pf/letizia-m...
