Advancing cancer research through NGS

Cancer is a complex, multifactorial disease that causes uncontrolled growth of cells, which can spread throughout the body from where they first formed. Interactions between cancer cells and their microenvironments affect every aspect of the cancer cell, including the genome, epigenome, transcriptome, and proteome. Thanks to advanced tools like next-generation sequencing (NGS) and microarrays, experts are using their unprecedented understanding of cancer biology to make meaningful advances in research, personalized medicine, and more.

Pioneering cancer research solutions

NGS allows researchers to detect low-frequency molecular events associated with carcinogenesis, cancer growth, and metastasis without bias for novel discoveries. Our comprehensive product portfolio supports integrated and flexible workflow solutions for library preparation, sequencing, and analysis to study DNA, RNA, epigenetics, protein, and more to enable multiomic cancer research. We offer a range of sequencing systems to meet your needs, from powerful benchtop models to versatile, high-throughput sequencing platforms to deliver quick, accurate, and cost-effective answers for actionable insights.
