DNA Sequencing Platform

The Genome Center maintains a state-of-the-art DNA Sequencing Platform (DSP) equipped to support large-scale genetics and genomics research as well as clinical-grade diagnostic nucleic acid sequencing.

Automated workflows for sample processing and sequencing library preparation coupled with high throughput DNA sequencing allow for high quality, cost-effective and timely data generation, thereby empowering large projects with hundreds or thousands of DNA or RNA samples.

ISO 15189 accreditation of the DSP provides a laboratory environment capable of producing clinical grade sequencing data. Acknowledging the critical issue of speed to medical clinical diagnostics, the DSP offers a ‘fast turn-around time’ WES service for WGS, WES and RNA-seq , providing data generation from sample delivery in less than 7 days.
