    "The chip is the machine"... maybe you can't sell the machine.

      I heard that ILMN just started offering up to the full trade-in value of the PGM toward the purchase of a MiSeq...

        Got a source?

          The number I heard was $26,000 off a MiSeq with a qualifying trade. Qualifying trade-ins included ABI 31xx, & 37xx machines, SOLiD, 454 GS-Flx and others. I can't remember specifically if the PGM was included, I wouldn't be surprised if it was, but the trade allowance was no where near full retail on the instrument.

            I had overheard that it was $26K for the listed above and up to $49K for the PGM. Don't know if anyone has done it yet, but guess it could hurt to hit up the rep if your interested.

              Checking further I found the $26K was offered on:

              ABI 31xx, 37xx
              ABI SOLiD
              ILMN GA (I'm not sure if this means the GAII/GAIIx are excluded.)
              Roche/454 GS-FLX & GSjr.

              The PGM was not on the list.

                I just had a chance to speak an Illumina Rep and he did confirm that there is a PGM - MiSeq trade-in program going on right now for up to the full $50K - As we don't have a PGM (but just looking into desktop sequencing) he was not overly eager to go into details with me - So, I guess there are a few stipulation and he was not really clear about when the promotion ends... Hope this helps

                  Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
                  by seqadmin


                  The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

                  Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
                  by seqadmin


                  Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
