EdgeBio Announces One Stop Sequencing



By Bio-IT World Staff

June 24, 2010 | At CHI's Beyond Sequencing conference in San Francisco, EdgeBio introduced their Science as a Service offering built with CLC bio's enterprise platform, CLC Genomics Server.

The service includes everything from experiment, project design, sample preparation, library construction, amplification and sequencing, bioinformatics and reporting. It offers customers a one-stop shop for next gen sequencing. EdgeBio is using Life Technolgies' SOLiD 3 sequencers that were named Tsunami, Volcano, and Hurricane by customers in April.

“In building out an integrated next generation analysis infrastructure, it was imperative that we leverage multi-faceted, commercial grade software with the ability to integrate open-source tools and proprietary internal algorithms," said Justin Johnson, director of bioinformatics in a press release. "CLC Bio provides a flexible and scalable enterprise platform which allows us to focus our efforts on providing scientific service to EdgeBio's customers.”

Turning Genomics Data into Practical Insight
Sponsored by SGI

With worldwide sequencing capacity approaching 13 quadrillion DNA bases annually turning genomics data into knowledge is a true computational challenge. Read this paper and learn how the SGI UV coherent shared memory platform can:  

  • Speed results time while cost competitively tackling the most difficult computational problems across all omics disciplines. 
  • Push performance by scaling to extraordinary levels, up to 256 sockets (2,560 cores, 4,096 threads) per single system (one OS image). 

Provide support for up to 16TB of coherent shared memory in a single system image enabling extreme efficiency across a wide range of compute demands.

New Complimentary Market Survey…
Collaborations and Communications Within Drug Discovery Research
Sponsored by Accelrys
This survey was conducted by the Cambridge Healthtech Media Group in January, 2012. It was sponsored by Accelrys related to their HEOS initiative to gather valid information around externalizing collaborative research while improving communications in the cloud. With 310 qualified industry respondents the survey findings reveal useful usage and trends patterns.  An insightful follow-on discussion and webinar related to this survey, and the HEOS by Scynexis SaaS portal is also available on the Bio-IT World website for complementary viewing.
