Hematology team member and researcher, Dr. Fabienne Desmots-Loyer at CHU – Hospital Pontchaillou, Rennes, France was performing RNA-seq of paired patient follicular lymphoma FFPE tumor samples in early 2019 for an important study she was assigned. Using the lab’s standard FFPE RNA isolation procedure, it was only possible to extract a few nanograms of mRNA… Read article →
The faster you can prepare high-quality NGS libraries, the faster you can proceed with sequencing your sample and uncovering insights that accelerate your understanding of its underlying biology. But what if you have thousands of samples? Issues such as manual handling errors, irreproducibility and batch-to-batch inconsistency become magnified the more samples you have to process….

Life science research is constantly on the edge of new technology developments. This trend is especially apparent in advanced transcriptomics and gene expression research. In December 2018, we hosted “RNA-seq Week”, where we presented five different webinars addressing the complete gene expression workflow, starting from sample preparation and ending with bioinformatics analysis. It also included… Read article →
In precision medicine, only a handful of DNA variants are going to be relevant for a specific disease or a targeted treatment. Identifying these variants can be difficult, depending on the DNA sample, the specific gene or region and the methodology used to detect them. Next-generation sequencing can deliver precise and accurate information on variants… Read article →
Don’t you hate seeing coverage gaps in your NGS panel after you’ve run your precious samples? Especially when the reason for the gap is as simple as primer dropouts? What’s even worse is that filling this gap might require a complete re-design of your panel! Well, this is not an uncommon problem for panels that… Read article →
