Peek Behind the Paper: RNA extraction and sequencing method for transcriptomic analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A peek behind the paper Cell and tissue biology Microbiology PCR and sequencing

Morgan Hiebert (left) studies drug-resistant tuberculosis within the National Reference Centre for Mycobacteriology (Winnipeg, Manitoba) led by Hafid Soualhine, situated in the National Microbiology Laboratory Branch of the Public Health Agency of Canada. Her research utilizes a multi-omics approach to investigate mutations that can be used as molecular markers for rapid drug susceptibility testing of tuberculosis infections, helping to accelerate the diagnosis and treatment of drug-resistant strains. In this interview, we gain a behind the scenes look at Morgan’s recently published paper in BioTechniques, ‘RNA Extraction and RNA-Sequencing Method for Transcriptomic Analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis’, as well as her top tips...
