Complex Disease Large-Scale Genomics
Researchers are harnessing the power of array and NGS technologies to conduct large-scale, global genetic analyses of complex diseases. This high-throughput genomic research is focused on multifactorial genetic discovery of markers related to disease risk. These studies look for changes in structural variation, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), indels, splice variants, methylation markers.
High-throughput genomic studies with tens to hundreds of thousands of samples require fast, cost-effective array and sequencing tools. Illumina offers array and NGS technologies with unprecedented sample-to-analysis solutions and unparalleled collaborative expertise to meet these needs.
