The lectures of the course covered different topics in the field of NGS technology is sequencing. So, addressed the following questions: "Aksana sequencing TruSeq Exome + IDT", "Clinical interpretation of NGS data. Analysis of clinical cases", "fundamentals of NGS: the preparation of libraries. The announcement of new products portfolio", "Modern NGS-laboratory, research-based Biobank"; "Bioinformatics approaches to the analysis of NGS data", "fundamentals of NGS: technology SBS".
During practical classes the fgbi "VGNKI" learned to cook the materials (library) for subsequent sequencing NGS and got the skills of a new generation sequencer Illumina HiSeq2500. Organizers of the course held for employees of the fgbi "VGNKI" a tour of the premises Biobank St. Petersburg state University, where the special attention of the staff subordinate to the Rosselkhoznadzor institutions attract the cryostorages with an automated control system that allows you to store a variety of biomaterial at a temperature of -80 °C.
Thanks held during the course of training specialists of the fgbi "VGNKI" has acquired the knowledge necessary for the process of new-generation sequencing (NGS) systems for high-throughput sequencing, and to assess the quality of reading and data analysis in the framework of the applied research works of the fgbi "VGNKI".
For reference:
Next generation sequencing – equipment sequencing (i.e., determining the nucleotide sequence of DNA or RNA), which makes it possible to determine the sequence of several fragments of the genome that considerably speeds up the analysis process. Sequencing technology in recent years, are advancing rapidly and used in all sectors of biotechnology, including food industry and in agriculture.
