Abstract
Methods for identifying and classifying differences between biological samples are based on replication timing (RT) data. By comparing RT data for a test sample(s) to RT data for already characterized samples, one can identify differences and profile any new cell type or disease. These new methods allow for the detection of all the changes between distinct samples, many of which would escape detection by previous methods that discard any features showing any intra-sample variation.
