Hello,
I'm the director of the new Massively Parallel Sequencing Shared Resource (MPSSR) at Oregon Health and Science University. We have an Illumina GAIIx and we provide services for all OHSU researchers and to researchers off campus as well. We cover the entire "food chain" - library preparation, sequencing, and initial alignment - and we try to provide some direction on data analysis as well. Prior to this I operated an in-house spotted microarray facility for 10 years and have been directing our Illumina Microarray Core for the last three years. Before getting involved in microarrays I worked on viral genomics - back when generating 600,000 bases for a project was considered a big deal.
I'm looking forward to learning from this community - it seems to be an excellent venue for tips for both bench techniques and bioinformatics issues for next-gen sequencing.
Bob
