The Podcast Explain is for everyone interested in DNA/RNA sequencing or technology in general. As Iuliia doesn't have a solid background in sequencing, she keeps asking "simple" - even silly at times - questions and Daniel gives his best to make us understand.

  1. Array Sequencing

    Array Sequencing

    For when matching and sticking is enough to get Since 2018, the West German Genome Center (⁠https://wggc.de/⁠) supports research in genomics & transcriptomics by providing expertise and sequencing services. WGGC is a part of the Next Generation Sequencing Competence Network (NGS-CN: ⁠https://ngs-kn.de/⁠) – network of NGS core facilities in Germany.
