Opening the spigot at XSEDE

XSEDE team speeds evaluations of transcriptome reconstruction, which will aid our understanding of cellular changes. Scientists hope to establish best practices that will help other researchers find clues to how cells change their behavior in response to disease processes …. “It’s crucial to determine the important factors that affect transcriptome reconstruction,” says Noushin Ghaffari of Read more about Opening the spigot at XSEDE[…]

Illumina just finished upgrading our HiSeq to the 2500 Whoop!

March 15, 2013:Illumina just finished upgrading our HiSeq to the 2500  Whoop! Quoted from the Illumina Website: “The HiSeq 2500 system features two run modes, rapid run and high output run mode, and the ability to process one or two flow cells simultaneously. This provides a flexible and scalable platform that supports the broadest range of Read more about Illumina just finished upgrading our HiSeq to the 2500 Whoop![…]

We just broke the 160 grant submissions supported mark!

January 10, 2013: We just broke the 160 grant submissions supported mark! Our grant support services run the range from co-submissions to experimental design consulting, and genomic and bioinformatic services.   We wish all our collaborates the best of luck and can’t wait to see all the amazing science we will have the privilege to Read more about We just broke the 160 grant submissions supported mark![…]
