Recent advances in genotyping technologies have enabled analysis of over 600,000 SNPs across large sample sets which have allowed whole-genome disease-association studies. More recently, several studies have shown the prevalence of common copy number variants encompassing a large percentage of the human genome. Illumina has developed the Infinium whole-genome genotyping assay, which can be applied to the study of genome-wide copy number variants and other alterations such as homozygosity tracts and how they relate to human disease.

HP Revitalizes multi-specialty clinic's IT environment. Physicians' Clinic of Iowa P.C. (PCI) is a multi-site, physician - owned medical group and needed to function as though they were in the same building. Today - after an infusion of specialized expertise, products and services from HP and HP Partner EnCompass - the group's technology environment is stronger, faster and more stable than ever.
