In , a team led by researchers from the Ó³»­´«Ã½, MIT, and Dana-Farber Cancer Center describes new statistical methods that account for artifacts introduced by whole-genome amplification of single-cell genomic DNA. Their approach establishes a system for characterizing amplification bias and provides a framework for quality assurance in single-cell DNA libraries. Ó³»­´«Ã½ associate member J. Christopher Love and institute member Matthew Meyerson were senior authors of the study; Ó³»­´«Ã½ researchers Cheng-Zhong Zhang and Viktor Adalsteinsson were first authors.
