The Genomics Platform offers a range of services that combine consulting and access to cutting-edge technologies in the field of genomics. The services offered primarily include Sanger sequencing, qPCR, and next-generation sequencing (NGS). We offer comprehensive support, from experimental design through to the final, complete analysis. The processing and analysis of NGS data is carried out in close collaboration with the IRIC Bioinformatics Platform. We specialize in RNA-seq projects and custom projects.

Our more than 20 years of expertise in qPCR and NGS is at your service!
