A QuantuMDx Leap for Handheld DNA Sequencing.

The article reports that QuantuMDx (QMDx) medical director Sir John Burn has offered insight at a nanowire technology for rapid DNA genotyping that could be developed to become the world's first handheld DNA sequencer. He presented the disruptive genome diagnostic technology during the International Congress of Human Genetics in Montreal, Quebec. QMDx signed an exclusive license of intellectual property from Nanosys of the diagnostic and sequencing applications of nanowires and nanotubes.
