Explain Podcast Episode 11 is out!
Explain Podcast moves towards discussing MGI sequencing…and not only. Did you know they have the whole sequencing room available? Fancy! At the end of each episode, we now release QuickGen, where hosts shortly discuss one term from Genetics. This time it’s about introns and exons! Let’s keep the conversation going – choose the platform where… Continue reading Explain Podcast Episode 11 is out!
NGS Webinar July 2024
In our next webinar Natja Haag from Aachen will tell us all about pain mechanisms and how they are working on deciphering them using singlecell sequencing methods. Join us on July 25th at 11 and hear more about pain and singecell sequencing! Register here!
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 Podcast 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 Podcast Episode 10 is out!
NGS Webinar June I 2024
Ana Conesa is one of the leading specialists in RNA transcript isoform sequencing. She and her partners pioneered the implementation of novel longread Sequencing technologies – both PacBio and Oxford Nanopore – to explore their use in addressing pressing questions in RNA Biology. By establishing well-curated lab protocols, and developing novel bioinformatics tools, she and… Continue reading NGS Webinar June I 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!
