SFAF 2014 Day 1 Highlights

05-29-2014, 09:47 PM

Highlights from day 1 of Sequencing, Finishing and Analysis in the Future Meeting (SFAF 2014)

Steve Turner from Pacbio declined to discuss or entertain discussion on benchtop platform. This was met with lots of audience laughter

Illumina had no response for ONT except to say they’re not going to respond to ONT until after they launch…ouch.

Pacbio said that right now read length is not being limited by on board chemistry but rather quality of input DNA.

Roche 454 is phasing out 454 but looking to compete on 4-5 other possibilities (very interesting news)
