Next-generation sequencing is transforming RNA-Seq research by equipping scientists with a more complete view of biology. A dramatic rise in RNA-Seq related breakthroughs from oncology, complex disease, and virology to agrigenomics and beyond, and an increase in NIH grants speak to its utility and promise. The impact of RNA sequencing can have far-reaching effects on basic research, the latest in a long-line of innovations that have transformed our understanding of the world around us.
