Hello there,

Glad to be part of the community.

I am currently runing GNS core service in our SIgN (Singapore Immunology Networking - don't be misled, it is not a virtual organization, it is a immunology research institute with the size of 160 people) within Biomedical Science Institute, A*STAR, Singapore. I am helping the sicentists in immunology field to answer their biological questions using NGS technology. The facility is relatively new, it has only been up runing actively for less than a year.

Before relocating to Singapore, I was working for Illumina NGS product developing on sample prep kits (mRNA-seq, small RNA-seq......). Would be glad to help if someone out there have problem making libraries :-) as feeding the sequencer a good quality of library is essential.

Hope to learn more from your experience.

Best regards,

Wen

Hello everyone,

I'm Khai from Malaysia. I'm doing research on WGS on colorectal cancer. I need help from you guys, how can i get the list of cancer genome that has been sequenced. I have a few papers but just wonder i might miss others. So if you know the full list of sequenced cancer genome, it would be appreciated to share it with me..

Thanks in advance

Hi, everyone,
I am a graduate student from Fudan University in China. One of my teachers recommended the Seqanswers forum. I found it every helpful for my starting to learn next generation sequence analysis.

Best!

Greetings!

I am a postdoc working in germany and have just approached the next-gen sequencing technologies. I am performing ChIP-Seq studies by Illumina-Solexa.

I am glad this forum is up.

Cheers.

Hi,
My name is Avidya.I used to work on sample preparation of DNA sequencing for Illumina GA2 or HiSeq,and now I am interesting in the next-gen seq data analysis.Hope to help each other.

Hello!

I am a student in San Francisco currently trying to align Illumina reads to transposable element reference sequences. Nice to meet you all!

Hello

Hi,
I am a recent ms statistics grad. I am now a programmer working on RNA-seq at the ICNN at UCLA. I have found SEQanswers very useful. Thanks!

Hi,

I'm a programmer working on whole chromosome visualizations across species. I'm here because I need some help understanding some of the surprises (for me, anyway) that I keep finding in the data.

wassup to all!

happy new year gang!...to paraphrase the incomparable john lennon "lets hope it's a good one!"

I'm working in amsterdam as systems biologist in immunology and infection...i'll be trying to introduce the next gen seq techs especially the RNA seq (i believe the roche454 will be used; however i need to double check)...i'd first like to construct a library of pathogen (like strepto, staphylo, etc.) genome sequences for future reference...can anybody point me to the right direction? thanx in advance!

cheers and success to all!

Hi,
I am not sure,whether you are the first NGS facility in India,or it was IGIB(CSIR)
We have heard of Zebrafish genome sequencing and human genome sequencing fom IGIB long ago and never about GANIT labs.

Anyway...good luck and welcome to the community...

Thank you and sorry if I was a bit ambiguous. GANIT Labs is a Public-Private initiative of DIT and Strand Life Sciences. I didn't mean to say that we are the first lab in India to do work on NGS or to have the first Next Gen sequencer, what i meant was, we are the first institute in India which works solely on NGS technologies.
We started in Oct'2010, hence you might not have heard about us.
and thanks again for the welcome.
