Hmm...we had our first MiSeq replaced as well due to repeated problems. The replacement was already upgraded to the new version and has been working like a champ.Originally posted by flxlex View PostComment

Hm, well good luck with the Proton! They keep pushing the road maps and when you read what some of their advocates mention in interviews with experts and the lack of data of the Proton I see people getting worried.
Please keep posting about experience and how you like it. Do you have a comparison planned yet? Would be interesting to see data coming of both machines and also a price comparison.
How much did you end up paying for the box(es)? I assume it comes with several auxiliary machines to help with the intense sample prep?

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

With the launch of new single-cell sequencing platforms in 2026, the field stands at an exciting inflection point. This article surveys the most impactful advances in the field and discusses how they’re reshaping research in cancer, immunology, and beyond.
Introduction
Single-cell sequencing technologies have undergone remarkable advances over the past decade, transitioning from low-throughput experimental approaches to highly scalable platforms capable of...05-22-2026, 06:42 AM -
Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.
Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...05-06-2026, 09:04 AM
