   The human exome constitutes 1.5‐2% of the information in the human genome. Depth of coverage in NGS studies refers to how frequently (on average) a given nucleotide is sampled in the multiple reads obtained. So 100X coverage means 100 ‘reads’ containing the nucleotide of interest. For statistical reasons high depths of coverage are necessary to

   Currently, I do GI/liver pathology sign out for about 60% of my effort. This entails diagnosing biopsies and evaluating tumor resections. The remainder of my time is evenly divided between administration – directing the GI/Liver pathology service and Research for Anatomic Pathology – and my own research. My research is focused on diagnosis and

The selection of pure tumor cells prior to sample processing can further exaggerate apparent variations in analytic sensitivity, so that a study utilizing relatively insensitive conventional sequencing, along with selection for tumor cells, will likely vastly underestimate
