SOHO 2018 | The superior sequencing technique: NGS versus SGS
Speaking from the 2018 Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) Annual Meeting, held in Houston, TX, Christopher Gibson, MD, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, compares next-generation sequencing (NGS) to older methods such as sanger sequencing (SGS).
