Genomics
Genomics is our passion and generating the best quality data is our mission.
State-of-the-art DNA and RNA analysis instruments, methods and applications, in particular next-generation sequencing and cutting-edge single-cell and spatial single-cell technologies to facilitate research.
The Genomics Core provides sequencing on the latest Illumina next-generation sequencing and ONT long read technologies. These allow unbiased genome-wide experiments to be performed that enable researchers to see, at base-pair resolution, what the underlying sequence differences are in cancer genomes.
We also provide library preparation services (LPS); typically for genomes, exomes, transcriptomes, and ChIP-seq experiments. We have a standard list of LPS on offer, please discuss your LPS needs with us prior to any submissions. If you have a project in mind, get in touch and we advise on the best approach for your samples, depending on the quality of nucleic acids, scope of your project, and available budget.
The cutting-edge disaggregated single cell library preparation and spatial single cell methods are our passion. We have variety of single cell workflows mainly based on 10X Genomics technology but also many others including plate-based methods using a low volume liquid handling robot. Again, if you have project in mind, just talk to us.
We are also able to offer a full service for sequencing, and library prep, where we perform the steps from sample-to-data. In addition, we house equipment for self-service use, where you have access to training, equipment, reagents and consumables, but do the work yourself.
