    The new link for the google map is now, http://pathogenomics.bham.ac.uk/hts. You can add stuff and sort by instrument here now.
    Enjoy.

    Dear All,
    Please try and add updates and new labs yourself. This is the intention of the new map, it is interactive and does not require effort by a single person.

    James.

    NextGen Sequencers in India

    Dear James,

    Appreciate if you could add Xcelris Labs from Gujarat, India in your Google map too. We are using ABI SOLiD v3 and Roche 454 for Whole genome sequencing studies. Congratulations for such an excellent work................
    Regards,
    DSB

    Yes, the map is very nice and very useful. It is also still very incomplete, at least for two countries I know fairly well i.e. France and Taiwan (there are at least five second-gen systems in Taiwan that I know of). I'll be collecting the information with the correct institution names for you.
    Cheers,
    Bertrand

    Thanks for the feedback. I gave it a try on Firefox 2.0 on the Mac and it seemed to work. Did you try CTRL-CLICK on the map? I have found some references to there being a possible bug in Firefox 3 and right-click handling so perhaps that's the issue (http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-i.../detail?id=377). Anyway, if you still have problems try going directly to http://pathogenomics.bham.ac.uk/hts/add/ and dragging the marker to the correct place (you'll need to zoom out a bit).

    I tried adding our site to the map, but right-clicking the map did nothing. I'm using Firefox 3.0.15 on a Macbook Pro.

    Thank you James! I really hope you all like the new site. Please do take the time to check the entry for your institute is as up-to-date as possible, and add missing facilities if you know about them. We'd be keen to get feedback on the usability and any features that would improve the site further. Obviously league tables are the next thing to implement!

    New GoogleMap, search by platform and other features...

    Thanks to everyone for looking at the GoogleMap and adding information,
    there have been over 100,000 views! There is now an updated and improved
    version which you can find at http://pathogenomics.bham.ac.uk/hts/

    The old version is now locked for future edits but will be periodically
    updated from the new database. The new site allows you to add new sites,
    update sites with platforms and capacity and correct any errors you find
    on the map yourself.

    The new map has a number of new features. Sites are clustered together
    to make it easier to navigate high-density regions. You can filter by
    individual platform, for example "show me all sites which have Illumina
    & SOLiD". There is more information held about each site. All
    the work on the new map has been done by Nick Loman at University of
    Birmingham, I really must thank him for taking my idea and making it
    much more user friendly. We'd be grateful for any feedback if you find
    any small problems or have suggestions for improving the interface further.

    The map was put together in the first place to show how many places had
    installed systems. I think when I first made it there were about the
    same number of Illumina's world-wide as Broad has currently. There has
    been phenomenal growth in next-gen technologie.

    And of course, for those interested in the question of which platform is
    in the lead, we will be putting league tables up shortly. But we wanted
    to give the community some time to help get the map as accurate as
    possible. Look out for the tables next week.

    Hopefully this map can help you find someone close to you to collaborate
    with, ask questions or just go to the pub and join in nerdy
    conversations about your first sequences being 350bp on an autorad. DNA
    bp is the next MB of Ram!

    Nope, the map does not allow this kind of info to be easily extracted. There are almost 150 sites listed as having next-gen sequencers. Most of these have multiple instruments and some have upwards of 40. I would guess the map captures around 400+ instruments, maybe more.

    Keep on adding stuff everyone!

    Just a detail about UUSM. It's located at Cuernavaca and not Mexico City.
    Thanks for adding it

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
