Next Generation Sequencing
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is an innovative technology that has revolutionized oncology research. Specifically, with NGS technology researchers are able to quickly sequence all exons in a genome (Whole Exome Sequencing or WES) and utilize RNA sequencing (RNAseq) to discover novel RNA variants and quantify mRNA for differential gene expression analysis.
Champions Oncology provides Next Generation Sequencing as an endpoint for in vivo and ex vivo studies. Tissue processing post study completion at our US-based facilities, provides fast turnaround times with reliable, high quality data analysis provided through Lumin Workspaces and visualization using Lumin Bioinformatics.
