For Narges, like for us all, life has not been without challenges. For her, the biggest challenge so far has been moving to Estonia with her family. Even though she would describe herself as a cosmopolitan person, and having had the experience of living in India as a student, her choice to live in Estonia was a totally different story. Coming out of her comfort zone after 10 years of settlement in Iran was the most challenging situation for her, her husband, and her son. It was challenging in terms of language, culture, and especially missing loved ones who were back in Iran. She feels blessed that they overcame the situation and by understanding and supporting each other were able to integrate into their new homeland.
Have you ever sat around a table with your friends or family and just come up with the wildest ideas while having a good meal? One of Kadri’s brightest memories is exactly that — sitting around a table during lunch with her husband, sister, and brother-in-law Olev, and having the conversation that led to the start of Solis BioDyne.
Our last story ended in the middle of 2005. By then, we had spent a decade developing room-temperature stable DNA polymerases for a range of applications. In the second half of that year, we reached a turning point – we started blending and mixing to help scientists around the world reduce pipetting errors and save time.
Single-cell sequencing uncovers the hidden diversity between individual cells, transforming research from cancer to neuroscience — but it demands reagents that protect every precious molecule. Here is where our innovations come into play.
Let’s talk about epigenetics! In this post, we’ll break down how the gold standard method for studying DNA methylation - bisulfite sequencing - works, why it matters in fields like cancer research and developmental biology, and what makes it such a cornerstone in the study of the epigenome.
