Originally posted by ymc View PostThanks for your reply. So is assuming a sequencing machine to last two years more reasonable? Then $959 is in the equipment cost. The total becomes $3,874. Then it does look like Duke is not making much. Probably their pricing is just an academic deal?
Maybe around $7,000 is more reasonable for non-academic? I found some deals on genohub that is around $3,300 for one rapid mode PE 100 lane. That's pretty close to the $7,000 I estimated.
The only way to know the actual price for your exact project on the exact terms you want is to contact the individual providers and give them all of the relevant information. They can then tell you if they have the capacity, how long it will take, and exactly what they will charge. The time consuming nature of doing this for more than one or two providers is the reason AllSeq created the Sequencing Marketplace. You describe your project once (using our online tools) and then have multiple providers (academic and commercial) bid on your project. Only those providers who have the interest and the capacity will be bidding, so you won’t waste time chasing down estimated prices that may or may not ever materialize.
Good luck and let us know what you end up doing.

Originally posted by gringer View PostOr use Genohub, which provides you with fixed prices first for a range of general use conditions, and then you can contact the provider directly with their pre-generated quote -- no time lost in waiting for bids. I guess the disadvantage of genohub is that it doesn't allow you to be completely specific about your needs (although the consultation option would probably work for that).
And AllSeq (as well as most providers) will happily offer a free consultation to help researchers design the most efficient NGS experiment. Our team has helped hundreds of people do this.

100% accurate pricing is indeed not very straightforward but it's a problem we've put in a lot of effort addressing. As a result the prices on Genohub are actually quite accurate. As a client when you submit a project the provider has the chance to review the details specific to your project and submit adjustments if needed. It's quite an easy and streamlined process. There's no commitment on the part of the client until the samples are actually shipped. So far, the majority of submitted projects on Genohub haven't required any price adjustments.
The way we achieve this is by offering providers an easy and powerful interface to manage their listings, and by working with them to maintain accuracy. Providers can list per-lane pricing, per-flow cell pricing, one-time offers, etc. and our software takes all of these into account to instantly calculate the best price based on client's requirements. Providers are also able to activate and deactivate individual services based on their capacity situation at the time.
Ultimately price is only one factor. We try to present as much information as possible to clients up-front, including things like available bioinformatics services, turnaround time, etc. In most cases that's sufficient but as a client you're free to submit your project to more than one provider and get more custom quotes, e.g. if you have very custom bioinformatics needs or have a multi-phase project with a mix of sample types.
We'd always love to hear your feedback and ideas on how to improve our service.

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...-

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-
