The Genomics Core is a fee-for-service facility which offers a multitude of genomics services, including next-generation sequencing, gene expression and genotyping arrays using the Illumina platforms and Sanger sequencing options, which employ an ABI Prism 3730 DNA Analyzer. Custom designed SNP projects and human and mouse linkage analysis projects also can be handled by the core. The Genomics Core hopes to provide a centralized resource working to take the difficulty out of next-generation sequencing projects for both novice and experienced users alike.
