Functional genomic screening allows for the elucidation of the mechanism of action of exogenous agents which modulate intracellular gene function such as pharmaceutical agents and other compounds. Read about the various considerations, approaches and interpretations when conducting a screen to investigate novel compounds and analyzing the screening data.

In pooled CRISPR drug-gene screens two selection mechanisms can be applied, positive or resistance and negative or sensitivity screening, with each having various considerations and uses
Functional Genomic and Cell Panel Screening can individually provide comprehensive data sets to support therapeutic development, but when utilized in combination they identify novel targets which are cross-validated by independent approaches.
The reasoning and research behind our Dharmacon™ CRISPRi platform recently published in The CRISPR Journal.
Learn about Horizon's CRISPRsc (CRISPR single cell) platform that combines the flexibility of pooled screening with the power of transcriptomics at single cell resolution.
Here we discuss a recent paper by Gisela Jimenez-Duran and colleagues highlighting how a whole genome CRISPR knockout screen, carried out by Horizon Discovery, has enabled identification of a pre-existing inhibitor that can regulate pro-inflammatory macrophages.
A summary of a recent publication in The CRISPR Journal showing that Horizon's integrated pooled CRISPRko and high throughput cell panel screening platform together offer clinically relevant information for therapeutic targets.
Here we talk about the role of the Edit-R Pooled sgRNA Indexing PCR Primers and answer the most common questions about the Indexing PCR and Sequencing Primer kit.
Demonstration of a repeatable pooled lentiviral sgRNA screen in primary human T cells
Choosing the right cell-based screen from the plethora of options available can quickly become a complicated decision process. Here, we review two of the major options: cell panel and functional genomic screening.
