Join #PacBio and @ZymoResearch on May 28 to see how HiFi sequencing is redefining microbiome research. An ideal lead up to ASM 2026. Learn how Kinnex and metagenomics resolve strain level diversity to improve cultivation strategies. Register here: bit.ly/3R0bOp7

The new economics of HiFi are here with #PacBio SPRQ-Nx. Sequence human genomes for $345, a ~30% savings per sample. Get industry-leading accuracy, phasing, and methylation for less. Stretch your budget while maintaining the same HiFi quality. App brief: bit.ly/4sR3S71

We updated our SMRT Cell Sequencing 101 post to reflect how #PacBio HiFi sequencing actually works today. From SPRQ-Nx chemistry to what you can do in a single run, it’s a more current look at sequencing performance. Blog here.👇 bit.ly/4uhjhi8

For decades, biology textbooks have enshrined a simple rule: DNA is made by copying a template. After one enzyme unzips a DNA double helix into separate strands, another called a polymerase builds a complementary sequence, base by base, for each strand. Presto: two copies of the original DNA. But new research into how bacteria defend themselves from viruses now shows this synthesis rule isn’t absolute. Now, a team describes a bacterial enzyme that synthesizes DNA without a nucleic acid template, using its own structure as a guide. Learn more: scim.ag/4tTc5IA @NewsfromScience

Excitement is building in Barcelona! 🇪🇸 #PacBioPRISM 2026 is officially here. We’re kicking things off with 200 guests and 25 expert-led talks on the way. We can't wait to see the latest in HiFi sequencing and discovery over the next few days. #PacBio

Join us at #ACMGMtg26 to see how HiFi sequencing is redefining genetic testing. We are featuring two posters: • P165: CFTR profiling using PureTarget panels (Billy Rowell) • P636: DNA extraction from low-mass samples (Deborah Moine) Details: bit.ly/3OBZmee
