NGS Webinar June II 2024

This June we have not one but two NGS webinars for you! In our second webinar, Denny Popp from Leipzig, will talk about longread sequencing in clinical applications. Join us on June 27th at 11:00 and hear more about longread sequencing in diagnostics! Register here!

Explain Podast Episode 10 is out!

Season 2 of the Explain Podcast is out&about – yey! We start by discussing Bionano and Nabsys – curious tech that we’ve classified as…Genome Mapping! At the end of each episode, we now release a new subsection QuickGen, where hosts shortly discuss one term from Genetics. This time it’s about transposons or…JUMPING GENES! Let’s keep… Continue reading Explain Podast Episode 10 is out!

NGS Webinar May 2024

How much do you actually know about the heartache? Can you tell what’s the link between heartache and transcriptomics? On Thursday the 23rd May at 11:00 CEST Mirela Balan will introduce us to her field of research. Register here and join us!

NGS Webinar April 2024

…here comes our next NGS Webinar! On the 25th April Thursday at 11:00 CEST Prof. Dr. Stephan Ossowski will give us a glimpse on how rare disease diagnostics in complex genomic regions work using long reads! Register here! Btw: Do you remember that long read sequencing was named the “method of the year 2023“? Our… Continue reading NGS Webinar April 2024

New funding opportunities for sequencing projects!

Great news! Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) – German Research Foundation offers additional opportunities to apply for funding high sequencing costs projects together with academic sequencing institutions. Sequencing projects with costs in both medical and non-medical environments can be funded. We and our fellow competence centers in the NGS-CN– NGS Competence Center Tübingen (NCCT)– DRESDEN-concept Genome Center–… Continue reading New funding opportunities for sequencing projects!

Explain Podast Episode 9 is out!

The last Episode of the first Season is out&about!We explore three prominent SINGLE CELL sequencing techniques using frameworks of 10x Genomics | Parse Biosciences | BD. Find it on Spotify or Deezer

Explain Podast Special Episode 3

In this Explain Podcast special episode we explore the PhiX bacteriophage and its role in sequencing the first DNA-based genome, as well as unique molecular modifiers and something sequencing definitely always needs: quality control. Find it on Spotify or Deezer Supported by the West German Genome Center and Next Generation Sequencing Competence Network, we’re dedicated to discuss… Continue reading Explain Podast Special Episode 3
