SeqAlign: Sequence Alignment Visualization
SeqAlign is a browser-based DNA/protein sequence alignment visualization tool by Chris Fenton. A clean interface for a foundational bioinformatics algorithm — useful for understanding how pairwise alignment works visually.
New Chip Delivers DNA Results Within an Hour
A 2013 report on a microfluidic chip that could return DNA diagnostic results in under an hour — compressing a process that took days in a lab. A snapshot of point-of-care genomics before it became a commercial reality.
Coming Soon: Apps That Use Your DNA
ReadWrite's 2012 preview of consumer apps built on top of personal genomic data — when 23andMe and others were opening APIs for third-party developers to build health and ancestry tools. An early look at a platform shift that never quite scaled as expected.
DNA Drawing with an Old Twist
Nature News on using DNA as a drawing medium, revisiting the 'DNA origami' technique pioneered by Paul Rothemund in 2006. DNA's programmable base-pairing makes it a surprisingly precise nanoscale construction material.
