The long and the short (reads) of it - Methods for analyzing RNA splicing in disease and their application
Splicing aberrations are linked to many diseases and the main method to detect those is RNA-Seq, using either short or long reads. In this talk, I will cover several efforts in our lab to combine and contrast the output from long and short reads, and develop methods analyze RNA splicing aberrations as these relate to both rare/monogenic and complex/heterogenous disease.
