About us

  • Next Generation Sequencing, High-throughput genotyping, Methylome

    The UMS2008 Functional Genomics Core Facility was created in 2012 and is built on the expertise of the UMR1256 n-GERE in the field of NGS sequencing for rare disease patients.

    The Core Facility provides to the scientific, academic and industrial community high-tech equipment adapted to the projects of:

    • High throughput genotyping on BeadChip Infinium Illumina chips.
    • Study of the methylation of the human genome on Infinium Methylation EPIC-Illumina chips.
    • Preparation and NGS sequencing of DNA libraries (MiSeq-Illumina sequencer, soon NextSeq 550-Illumina).
    • Bioinformatic analysis of omics data.

Access and Fees

  • The Core Facility is open to the academic and industrial scientific community at the local, national and internation level.

    The team is at your disposal to help you by bringing its technical and methodological know-how and to follow you from A to Z in your imaging projects.

    The Core Facility has a differential pricing system (members, academic and industrial).

    Any new collaborator must first contact the head of the core facility to define the best strategy to adopt for conducting his study, and obtain a quote.
