We've done it before. Let's see if I am still here when you get around to it. That is planning in advance!

Join the local Melbourne #illumina Field Apps team to specialise in #Bioinformatics. It's a great team, you get to play with #DRAGEN and help customers get the best data for analysis. #genomics #multiomics #singlecell #spatial #transcriptome #epigenetics bit.ly/46o4sRj
I can refer the right folks.

Sequencing reimaginedβ€”EpiSign validation of Illumina 5-base sequencing

Have you seen Bekim's early access presentation from ASHG? sapac.illumina.com/company/vide...
Low input, not HMW, not ultra pure extractions, high throughput, short read accuracy, cfDNA compatible and easy to use #DRAGEN analysis pipeline for those who don't have bioinformaticians on hand.

From sample to insight: Streamlining analysis with the Illumina 5-base solution Discover how the Illumina 5-base solution and DRAGEN pipeline streamline genetic and epigenetic analysis with accurate methylation and variant insights.

Switch from painful #methylation protocols... #Illumina 5-Base plus #DRAGEN and Connected Multiomics make it so much easier. All from a single sample and single sequencing run. bit.ly/3MAr8qA

I had nothing to do with this great idea but will happily tell those in charge it was worth it @lornegenome.bsky.social

@agbt.bsky.social is coming soon! I miss out again, but #illumina will speak about #multiomics workflows, library prep, #sequencing systems, informatics, analysis and AI.

Predictions?

A little bit of Illumina Seq, a little bit of ONT seq, a little bit of Helicos seq. The sample prep for seq back in the day was hectic! Very happy that his has reached pre-print and ready for review.
