In all the hoopla about Illumina’s announcements, this might have been missed: they just discontinued five sequencing instruments. Did yours just become obsolete?

Surely it's no surprise. Our GAIIx has been obsolete for a long time... long prior to the announcement of new sequencers. I would have thought that anyone owning a GA-series instrument would know that it's not worth running unless you have a specific application that can't be done on another sequencer, or unless you were getting much better pricing from Illumina than we were!
... anyone want to buy a GAIIx? Perfect working order with all accessories included :-) -
Yes, you're absolutely correct. It's been effectively obsolete (and only minimally supported) for quite some time. The HiSeq 1000, 1500 and 2000 being discontinued is perhaps a bit more surprising, but their lineup was looking a bit crowded. The slimmed down choices seems to make more sense.Originally posted by ScottC View PostComment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
