FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--When Applied Biosystems (NYSE:ABI), an Applera Corporation business, introduced its ultra-high-throughput genomic analysis system less than a year ago, the company entered a new era of life-science research, enabling scientists to adopt new approaches for studying the genetic basis of health and disease. Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, as well as Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC), have adopted innovative approaches for their research related to large-scale discovery of genetic variation and cancer research, respectively. This week, scientists from these institutions will present preliminary findings from their research using the SOLiD™ System at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory’s Biology of Genomes meeting in New York.
