The iGenSeq platform (genotyping-sequencing platform) specialises in genomic analysis techniques that provide research teams with the necessary equipment to sequence the genome, that is, the reading of DNA and its derivatives such as coding RNAs, small RNAs and non-coding RNAs. This reading allows detailed analysis of the genome, detection of mutations or variations in gene expression, and identification of potential associations between these alterations and diseases of the nervous system.
Presentation of the platform
Thanks to its expertise, the platform is recognized as a major player in sequencing in France, and has joined the GENOMIC FRANCE network in 2022.
The platform also offers its services to academic research teams external to Paris Brain Institute as well as to industrial players with projects requiring high-level skills.
The services offered by iGenSeq include real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), digital PCR, next-generation high-throughput sequencing and single cell RNA analysis, including transcriptomic spatial analysis. Each project submitted to the platform is discussed with the researcher in order to optimize its design and feasibility.
