If you are interested in studying gene expression, genetics or high throughput screening, then the Genomics CTU can help you by providing access to a range of innovative molecular biology technologies in a quality-controlled environment. We offer a wide range of services, from sample QC through to comprehensive NGS pipelines. Our automated ultra-low volume liquid handling equipment is amenable to high throughput screening, NGS, and qPCR applications. We also have single-cell sequencing capabilities. All our services are performed within defined Pre and Post-PCR quality controlled GLP laboratories with fully validated and controlled Standard Operating Procedures
