How we can help you
NGS project design, method development, cost information and/or sample requirements
Contact us at genomics@auckland.ac.nz to discuss your project design. Please include the following information in your email:
- your name, institution, and contact phone number
- brief hypothesis you desire to test or your goal in doing the project
- the type of sequencing you want (Illumina/Nanopore),
- the number of reads OR amount of sequencing data per sample you require
- what type of library prep is required (i.e. rRNA depletion, Nextera library, etc)
- for illumina projects what read length you need (i.e. 1 x75bp, 2x 250bp, etc)
Cost and sample requirement information will be supplied once your project has been designed.
When you have a project numbers and are ready to submit samples, use our packing guidelines:
Sanger sequencing and genotyping
All cost and sample requirement information for Sanger sequencing and genotyping is available through iLab.
Training requirements
Training and booking for all instruments is available through iLab.
