Hi,
I am a PhD student in the University of Iowa, majoring in Genetics.
I work a small but very vertically-integrated rat genomics lab, and the part of the project I'd be following includes, among other things, the union of genomic, transcriptomic and metabomic (Sorry for all the omic-dropping here) to study the genomic risks of metabolic syndrome.
The majority of my NGS need is RNA-seq, which is currently planned to be dealt with ISU's Solexa, but I'll look at possibilities to use the local SOLiD instead.
My work currently ranges from animal care to Bioperl scripting, but personally I enjoy the more downstream of it much, especially when I don't have much of an abstract thinking to deal with the upstream matters.
