    Free NGS Sample Prep Symposium Dec 15, Bay Area

    "AUTOMATING THE NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING WORKFLOW"
    Hosted by LRIG Bay Area

    Date and Time: December 15, 2010, 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM
    Location: South San Francisco Conference Center
    Free Registration: www.lrigbayarea.org

    We will investigate the latest methods and technologies to fully exploit Next Generation Sequencing, including upstream library preparation and template amplification. Clinical applications for emulsion PCR will also be explored.

    The event is free, a buffet lunch is served at 12:30 prior to the presentations. There will be twenty vendors serving the genomics community exhibiting.

    Confirmed Speakers:
    Emily Leproust, Ph.D., Agilent Technologies, Director Applications and Chemistry R&D - Genomics
    The Agilent Technologies SureSelect(tm) Platform for Target Enrichment

    William Donahue, Ph.D., Manager, Molecular Biology, Beckman Coulter Genomics
    SPRIworks - An Automated Sample Preparation System for Second Generation Sequencing Platforms

    Take Ogawa, Raindance Technologies
    Finding Needles in the Genomic Haystack: targeted sequencing for rare variant analysis

      Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
      by SEQadmin2



      Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

      There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

      Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by GATTACAT
      Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
