An important milestone for multiomics

Illumina is pleased to announce the acquisition of SomaLogic—a leader in data-driven proteomics technology.

This marks an important milestone in the execution of the Illumina multiomics strategy, bringing proteomics expertise to our customers and strengthening our ability to deliver scalable insights across genomics and proteomics.

Illumina and SomaLogic have been partners in proteomics co-development since late 2021. This combination increases our ability to serve our customers and accelerate our technology roadmap toward advanced biomarker discovery and disease profiling. 

Illumina will remain an open, accessible, and enabling next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform and is committed to maintaining and supporting its existing proteomics partnerships. We will also continue to support SomaLogic customers and partnerships, including existing service providers using the array-based readout.

Powering proteomics

We are proud to join forces to deliver advanced proteomics solutions. By combining expertise and technologies, we’re accelerating innovation, expanding market reach, and reducing the time and cost of proteomic research for our customers.

Protein discovery

Aptamer-based SOMAmer technology from SomaLogic unlocks deeper insights into protein functions, interactions, and modifications, helping to accelerate our understanding of complex biology and human health.

Scalable solutions

Together, we will leverage existing technology to empower more insights, bringing the high scalability, flexibility, and low cost of NGS platforms into protein analysis.

Accelerated research

Combining SomaScan proteomics technology from SomaLogic with the scalable Illumina NGS ecosystem, DRAGEN secondary analysis software, and Illumina Connected Multiomics accelerates the technology development roadmap across the proteomics portfolio.

Connected proteomics

By integrating SomaLogic proteomics technology into our high‑throughput NGS ecosystem, we are delivering new ways to explore the proteome at scale. This combined capability enhances biomarker discovery and disease profiling, helping researchers generate more meaningful insights, faster.
