NGS research featured in Scientific Computing World

NGS user Tina Sarkinen from the University of Oxford recently had her research on how plant diversity develops mentioned in SCW.

A recent article in Scientific Computing World (SCW) examined how science and scientific computing are helping us to tackle the problem of feeding an ever increasing population.  The article featured the research of Tina Sarkinen from the University of Oxford who is a user of the NGS.  Tina has been using the NGS to combine DNA sequencing data, molecular dating and fossil data to reconstruct densely sampled plant phylogenies over a period of 10 to 15 million years.

To read more about Tinas work, see the article entitled "Food For a Future" on the SCW website.
