Next-Generation Sequencing
 

Due to the increased demand for a rapid and cost-effective generation of larger amounts of highly accurate data, the MGH CCIB DNA Core now provides massively parallel "next-generation" sequencing (NGS) services for several focused applications. Sequencing is performed on one of the leading sequencing platforms, the Illumina MiSeq, utilizing V2 chemistry. Our data systems are integrated with the Mass General Brigham ERISOne Linux Cluster. We work closely with CCIB's bioinformatics specialists who develop novel tools and algorithms, analyze NGS data, and consult.
