CRS4's Next Generation Sequencing Core Facility reaches in 2016 a throughput of 10 TBase/month, becoming the largest in Italy, with 1 x Illumina HiSeq3000, 1 x Illumina HiSeq2500, 2 x Illumina HiSeq2000 and 1 x Illumina MiSeq.
The platform is directly connected to the CRS4 large scale computational resources. This infrastructure, unique in Italy, enables CRS4 to perform large scale sequencing projects, from data production to analysis.
In the same year the CRS4's Next Generation Sequencing Core Facility has successfully completed Illumina Propel certification program for NGS becoming an Illumina certified genomics service provider worldwide.
